The colour is mahogany and the foam is rich and thick. The scent is strong and structured, notes of caramelized malt, toffee, caramel and dry fruit chase each other. A rich, soft and round taste for your palate calls to mind scents already perceived by the nose, while a light bitter note will give the final touch.
The strength of this beer is surely the abundance of sensations that will never tire you. It can be grand, without being noisy and redundant.
The additional idea
Use it to create the base for a rich flavoured risotto. Toast the rice, sprinkle with LABI La ROSSA, add pumpkin sliced in small squares and sausages previously stewed with a shallot in extra virgin olive oil. Classic cooking with broth and, of course, stirring.
Also, you can soak some dry raisins to make delicious muffins!

At the end of a dinner it’s a perfect combination with desserts, especially red fruit pies, caramel, dry fruit or cream.

Rigatoni with red sauce sausage
A great sauce calls a great beer. The sausage, the tomato and the richness of this dish couldn’t go any better than with a charming red beer, soft bodied but structured. Red fruit, dry fruit, caramel and malt will exalt the taste of the sauce. A bitter final will help to degrease your palate and be ready for another bite.
