SIRIO GERMAN STYLE ALTBIER

Altbier

ABV: 5.6%

Suggested Glassware: Ale Glass

Tasting Notes: Benvenuto a Sirio, our ‘new’ take on a traditional Altbier of ‘old’ that hails from the valleys of Rhineland. Made collaboratively as a farewell to our good friend Andrea, who made the trek all the way from Italy to spend the summer here at Luppolo. Paying homage to Andrea’s nonno Sirio, this beer is made with premium Italian barley and a blend of Munich malts. Sirio was single decocted for added malt depth, gently hopped with Hallertau and fermented with a classic German ale yeast. Expect aromas of freshly baked panettone, fig jam, and turbinado sugar with scrumptious flavours of honey and dates. Medium bodied with a delicate bitterness and a dry crisp finish, this altbier is as inviting as it is crushable. Andrea you will always be famiglia and we are proud to share this beer on your behalf. Ciao bello!
