Brewed for the Italian market and it is a middle Sour, with a ph of 3,85/3,90 of acidity. Note that this is not the same Panil Barriquee (Sour) as the version exported to the US.

[2] Review by techdiver from Glenside, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (7/28/2007 3:41:05 PM)
"Pours a hazy chestnut with no visible carbonation and a few bubbles for a head.
Sour fruit to the nose.
Taste is fairly unexciting. Sourness is present, but after any Rodenbach this is lacking.
Mouthfeel is thin and could benefit from more carbonation.

[4] Review by E from Spring Mountain, PA, USA who has tried this beer once. (3/26/2007 10:32:28 AM)
"Poured a cloudy orange color, with a large, off white head that left nice lacing on the glass. Aroma of light brett (not as present as in the US version), cherry, oak, and grape skins. Taste of cherry, wood, toffee, nuts, with a bit of lemon peel, and a tart, dry finish... noticeably less sour than the US version. "

[5] Review by Phil B from Gatineau, Canada who has tried this beer once. (10/23/2006 1:57:29 PM)
"Bottle: Poured a light beige color ale with a huge foamy head with perfect retention and lacing. Aroma is sour with some tart and oak and is also reminiscent of lambic but maybe a tad lighter. Taste is a mix between some sourness; tart some subtle oak with a long dry finish. I would probably have liked more sourness overall but I thought this was still very enjoyable. Carbonation is very lively and body is quite full with minimum filtration. I am now very curious to taste their other offering."
