Astrum is our Christmas Beer here at the Birrificio Sorrento!
The tradition of "christmas beer" was born in the 800's by the Belgian beer makers - who brewed a special beer that was to be drunk at Christmas time with the family.
This is a much loved brew - that we now give as a christmas gift to our best customers!
Its not an easy beer to describe - each one produced differently by brewers - but that is the beauty of this kind of beer - all the various types that you can get & enjoy. Each one special & unique.
With our version - Astrum - the rich mahogany colour is one of the inspirations that we based this on, but we tried to use all the senses that represent christmas. Its important that all the aromas, cinnamon, cloves & star anise blend harmoniously together and flood us with memories of our most cherished christmas traditions - most importantly Roccoccò & mustacciuoli (sweet biscuits flavored with these spices made specifically at christmas time). These flavours are intense & rich but never overpowering due to a slightly bitter dryness on the end which naturally leads to your next sip. This is pairs beautifully with sweet dishes, or dark chocolate. And is wonderful whilst enjoying a cigar or to enjoy as the Belgians intended simply round the christmas table with your family!
Best Served at a temperature of between 9 &11 degs.
