Fruit Beer 6.5 º 29 IBU

Brasserie Pietra

Pietra Rossa is a vibrant Fruit Beer that showcases a festive integration of cherry and raspberry. The aroma is dominated by a superb, fresh cherry character that translates seamlessly to the palate. It strikes a sophisticated balance between a subtle malty sweetness and a gentle hop bitterness, punctuated by a refreshing hint of acidity. This bright acidity enhances its thirst-quenching nature, while the red fruit notes provide a gourmand complexity. The result is a harmonious, well-integrated profile where the fruit enhances the base beer's crispness without becoming overly syrupy or artificial.

Appearance. Deep ruby-red to garnet hue (SRM 12–18) with a pinkish-white, fine-beaded head showing moderate retention. Clear to brilliant clarity with lively effervescence.

Aroma. High intensity of fresh cherry and tart raspberry; fruit character is authentic and dominant. Beneath the fruit, a light grainy-sweet malt presence and very low floral hop notes are detectable. Clean fermentation profile.

Taste. Initial impression is of ripe cherry and juicy raspberry. The malt provides a soft, bready foundation that balances a low hop bitterness. A slight fruit-derived acidity provides a crisp edge. The finish is relatively dry and refreshing, with a lingering red berry aftertaste that avoids being cloying.

Mouthfeel. Medium-light body with moderate-high carbonation providing a prickly, refreshing sensation. Light alcohol warmth is well-integrated. Smooth texture with no notable tannic astringency.
