Birrra Moretti La Rossa, Birra Moretti, Italy – A glass presents an attractive, bright red\amber beer with a lasting cream-tan head. Aroma is soft with equal amounts of dark bread, highlighted by dark fruits including prunes, raisins and a bit of molasses. Regardless of all that, the body is lighter than anticipated. With this beer emphasis is placed squarely on the malt and alcohol, hops are subtle and restrained. Finish is perfume-like alcohol and a light spiciness.
