Description

LILITH: pale ale  - IBU 27 - EBC 21.   According to Hebrew cabalistic tradition Lilith was Adam’s first companion created, not like Eve from a rib, but from the earth. Because of her having chosen not to submit to her husband, she was repudiated and expelled, thereafter becoming a female demon. This name was chosen because Lilith was our very first beer, produced by the way, on the 6th, June 2006 (write the date in figures and you will understand!). Awards: Birra dell'Anno 2007 (bronze); Slow Food guida della birre 2013 (grande birra); Birra dell'Anno 2014 (gold); Slow Food guida della birre 2015 (grande birra); Slow Food guida della birre 2017 (birra quotidiana).

Color

A beer with character, amber in colour and having a persistent head

Aroma

Well-structured though very fresh, it gains its citrus and resinous scent with a clear bitter finish from the use of hops coming from both Europe and America. it is dry-hopped with Cascade, Amarillo, Simcoe and Citra hops, the bitterness is rebalanced by the use of English pale malts (making it different from an IPA)

Taste

Similar to a English Pale Ale Lilith is an amber beer inspired by English bitter, and a strong American “cascade” hop, Lilith is clear with light beige, dense and persistent froth. The fresh fruity citrus scent gives it a taste of grapefruit and raisin, balanced with appealing candied malts and a slight bitter finish to leave your mouth dry, clean, and ready for further sips. An arrogant beer, but also delicate and refreshing.

Food Matching

It is best with pork or fatty meats, dried meats and salamis or grilled meats.
