Rebel

Rebelde — American Strong Ale — Orso Verde

Rebelde is the American Strong Ale by Orso Verde, a craft brewery from Varese (Lombardy). As the brewery team likes to say, Rebelde shouts its rebel state to anyone who tastes it: a distinctive drink made with a generous and skillful use of malts, hops, and fermentation, celebrating bold and determined craftsmanship. Deep amber color, aromas of caramel and resin, and — surprise — an unexpected lightness despite the high alcohol content.
