Quite pale yellow. Not much head. Aroma is fruity - peachy, passionfruit, lychee notes. This has a mid-range bitterness, and the fruit is really bright here. Good balance. Malts come across fairly sweet, but that's also sort of the honeyish lychee notes from the krush.

500mL can, pours a cloudy yellowish blonde with a small white head. Aroma has plenty of hop tang, lots of melon, and soft biscuity malt. Flavour is fresh, with a nice tropical melony hop character, gentle pine, and fairly crisp biscuity malt. Plenty of vibrant melony hop expression. Very good.

Poured from 500mL can (bb 13/06/2026; thanks Iznogud). Hazy blonde with small white head. Aroma of nice tropical hops with feint gas fumes. Taste is a bit subdued, mild tropical melon-like hops, touch of yeast. Okay.

On tap at Ambasada, Zagreb, also 0.5 l can. Hazy greenish-yellow, small off-white head. Intense fresh herbal hoppy, hop bite at first. Intense tropical notes, passion fruit, pineapple. Smooth, juicy, creamy. Very fresh. Too young. Flavour is herbs and onion. Slightly rough, finishes dry.

Can courtesy of Hrabren, Varaždin tasting, thx! Greenish golden body, off-white head. Sharp pinapple aroma, light mango. Pineapple and light mango, along with light herbal notes in the overly dry taste, okay, but might try again.

Varazdin tasting. Pale yellow orange color with medium white head. Aroma is full of tropical fruits as mango, passion fruits, lychee, but also apricots. Very light malt, no hoppy bitterness. Taste starts malty, quicky overlapped by tropicac fruity hops. Juicy, slightly hoppy bitterness in finish. Nice.

On tap at Ambasada Zagreb. Murky yellow coloured, medium sized white head, citrusy nose. Juicy, citrusy, fruity, bit grassy and light herbal with touch of grapefruit in the finish. Bit green but nice.

On tap at Ambasada. Hazy yellow with medium white head. Nice citrus, tropical fruit, grapefruit, mango, some melony dankness. Medium bitterness in finish. No sweetness. Drinks very nice. Not a big fan of hazies lately, but this is one of the best beer by Nova Runda.
