SAN ZEN
THE MUST-HAVE DOPPELBOCK
IN PRAISE OF SYMMETRY
While the story and period of Saint Zeno are far removed from that of the Scaligers, we simply could not resist dedicating one of our beers to the miraculous patron saint of Verona. ‘San Zen’ will certainly forgive us!
Doppelbock is a bottom-fermented beer with a deep amber colour, offering medium-intensity aromas of breadiness, toffee and red fruit. The taste recalls the aromatic notes. Bread, biscuit and caramel come to the fore alongside the sweet notes of plum, cherry and raisins.
Awarded for its top-notch tasting profile as a “Birra Imperdibile” – an unmissable beer – in the Slow Food Guide to Italian Beers 2021.
