L’OLMAIA, TUSCAN CRAFT BEER
Olmaia is a craft brewery located in the municipality of Sant’Albino, near Montepulciano in Tuscany.
A step away from the well-established wine culture, this brewery is developing which intends to affirm the culture of beer alongside wine. The Olmaia brewery produces different types of beers as well as some seasonal specialties.
"LA 5" is the one that made history in the Tuscan brewery, and has now established itself also on the national scene. Its peculiarity is the production through a single base malt, German and Slovenian hops with a fresh result but with character.
For amber lovers, an excellent choice is certainly “LA 9”, a pale ale with a caramelized taste and an impressive hopping, while if you appreciate the herbaceous tastes more, you certainly cannot fail to choose “LA STARTSHIP”. For its production, being an English bitter, the brewery has chosen exclusively ingredients from the United Kingdom, dedicating the name to the musical group Led Zeppelin and their Boeing 720 called “startship”
If, on the other hand, your palate likes to savor intense and bitter tones, the "TANGERINE" is the one for you, an ipa session with only American hops, it will certainly be difficult to stop drinking it!
Finally, how not to mention the “DUCK”, a dark strong ale with American and German hops with an intense aroma and hints of caramel and coriander…. Definitely to try!
Beer of great character and with intense bitter hints.
One glass leads to another.
