Pairings and dishes

Game, ravioli and pasta dishes with pumpkin, pumpkin cakes and pastries, amaretti.

Nose

The scents of cereals turn into fruit aromas, given by the pumpkin flesh used in the brewing process and from the subtle scents of freshly peeled tangerine

Taste

Once sipped, the citrus notes come to the fore and blend with the taste of pumpkin, creating a freshness that balances the typical sweetness of pumpkin beers

Remarks

Zucca was created in 2011 to celebrate the yearly Pumpkin Festival held in Piozzo since 1994. It was initially produced to be served on tap during the days of the festival, and only at the pub on the square of the event. Given its success, though, it was later bottled for all those who, every year, wanted to take back home a souvenir.

Aspect

A beer with a nice, deep yellow-orange color like pumpkin flesh, and a thick, fine and persistent head with orange hues.
