Hello, beer lovers! 🍻
A beautiful, sunny, and hot weekend was ahead of us, so my wife and I went to the seaside again. She sunbathed and swam a little while I had something to do on the terrace, which I'll explain later.
And, of course, in the afternoon, in the shade, during the hottest part of the day, I treated myself to a few more beers for the 429th #beersaturday. A fantastic day!
Two bottles, one Italian and one Scottish, have been chilling in the fridge all day. I'm happy to share my beer experience with you!
First, the one with less alcohol.
Raffo Lavorazione Grezza
Brewed by Raffo, Taranto, Puglia Italy, part of Birra Peroni.
Bottle, 0.45 l, alcohol 4.9% ABV, IBU 13. Lager.
What do the Master Brewers say?
Raffo Lavorazione Grezza was founded in Taranto in 1919. Enriched with PUGLIA BARLEY, it is a lager with a smooth body and a very refreshing dry taste, with just a hint of bitterness in the finish. It is produced today as it was then, with the same recipe and the same pride.
The beer is clear and yellow in color, with average foam. It does not have any particular aroma. It goes down smoothly, and I first taste a slight sweetness in my mouth, followed by a gentle bitterness of hops at the end.
Everything disappears in the aftertaste.
A delicious and refreshing lager!
Classic lager flavors, although this is most expected from German and Czech beers. I bought it at the Famiglia store in Italy, and the price was very reasonable at €1.50. Next time we go shopping in Italy, I'll have to bring some more back with me.
I was very productive today, even though the sun was blazing.
First, I trimmed the reeds around the caravan and terrace, which was quite a lot of work, and I even got a blister on a finger after a long time. 😂
Then I coated the terrace floor with Teak oil.
I definitely deserved a beer :)
One more beer to go!
Tennent's 1885 Lager
Brewed by Tennent's Caledonian Brewery, Glasgow, Glasgow City, Scotland.
Bottle, 0.33 l, alcohol 5%, IBU N/A. Lager
What do the Master Brewers say?
Tennent’s is more than just a great lager – it's a national treasure. As a product, it has always been known for being a great pint - dating back to its long history from 135 years ago when Hugh Tennent brought the recipe back from Bavaria.
The beer is light yellow in color. The head is average and disappears quickly. It goes down smoothly. Again, there is a slight sweetness at first, followed by a solid bitterness from the hops. The aftertaste disappears quickly.
And what am I listening to when writing this and tasting beer? Nothing from Friday's #newtunes, I retook a break, hahah, now I'm listening to something summery.
