About this release

An exceptional Barrel Aged Barley Wine at 13.0% ABV from Opperbacco, aged in barrels of Montepulciano d'Abruzzo — an iconic red wine from the Abruzzi region. This beer combines the rich, complex sweetness of a barleywine with subtle wine-like notes of dark fruit, vanilla and oak. A true tribute to the local wine tradition of the region, poured into beer. Birra Cotta N°1 is a masterpiece from Italian brewery OpperBacco from Notaresco, which has specialized in craft beers with characteristic regional influences. With an alcohol content of 13.0%, this is a robust and full-bodied barleywine that demands respect and time. Aging in wine-seasoned wooden barrels gives this beer an elegant character that goes beyond what you would expect from a standard barleywine. This is a beer for moments of reflection, for lovers of complex flavors and for those who want to be surprised by what happens when two great Italian traditions come together. With a solid rating of 4.16 on Untappd, Birra Cotta N°1 proves that this fusion is not only noticeable, but also overwhelmingly appreciated by beer enthusiasts all over the world.
