Red Ale 8 º

Tenute Collesi

This Imperial-strength American Amber Ale presents a robust sensory profile defined by its deep reddish-copper hue and complex malt architecture. Expect a bold aromatic display of rich caramel and toasted hazelnut, underpinned by subtle spicy undertones and stone fruit esters derived from its traditional top-fermentation and natural bottle conditioning. At 8% ABV, the palate is greeted with an initial malty sweetness that transitions into a balanced, firm bitterness. The integration of toasted grain flavors and a gentle floral hop character ensures a sophisticated depth, while the natural carbonation provides a creamy, medium-full body that leads to a warm, lingering finish.

Appearance. Deep copper to a brilliant reddish-brown with a moderately large, creamy off-white head that exhibits excellent retention and fine lacing. Generally clear, though a very slight haze may be present due to bottle conditioning.

Aroma. High intensity with a dominant malt presence of heavy caramel and toasted hazelnut. Secondary notes of dark fruit esters and a distinctive spicy yeast character are balanced by moderate floral and citrus hop aromas.

Taste. The flavor leads with an initial caramel sweetness and rich, nutty malt complexity. Moderate to moderately-high bitterness provides a clean counterpoint to the malt-heavy profile. Notes of dried fruit and light spice emerge mid-palate, finishing with a lingering toasted grain character and a touch of hop resin.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, velvety texture. High carbonation from bottle conditioning provides a lively prickle, while the 8% alcohol content imparts a noticeable but well-integrated warmth.
