Bottle pour, enjoyed at Dubrovnik Beer Factory. Cool find with this one. Didn't expect to find top 50 options on this trip, and now I find myself working on a few. A really good hoppy lager here. Golden pour, tons of carb. A fresh citrus constant aroma. Flavor is plenty of good hop character as well, citrus fruit and peel bitterness. A bit of a growing bitterness late. Probably the best use of hops that I've had from the region so far. An excellent beer here.

On tap at Lajbah, pours a clear golden blonde with a small white head. Aroma brings out dank hops, with cereal and straw. Flavour is loaded with soft piney hops, some soft straw notes and cereal malt. Soft palate, with ample piney hops. Very good.

Bottle, 0.33l. Aroma of citrus, pine and flowers. Pours cloudy golden color with large soapy white head, good lacing and soft visible carbonation. Taste starts medium sweet bready, following is refreshing fruity with smooth mouthfeel and moderate grassy bitter finish. Medium body, creamy texture and soft carbonation in palate. As good as Baltazar cartoon...

0,3 l on tap at Krško beer festival back in May. Pours hazy golden yellow with stable white head. Huge citrus hop nose, pine, grapefruit on top of light malt aroma, slightly grainy. Flavor follows same profile. Taste is light sweet, medium bitter. Body is medium, texture slick, carbonation average. Finish was quite dry, still citrus with decent bitterness. Very nice.

Relativno nova piva iz pivovare Medvedgrad. Po meni su baš lijepo pogodili gorčinu, što znači da je gorka. Dakle, ako tko voli lagere, odnosno tu "praznoću" lagera ali sa mirisom i gorčinom IPA-e, ovo je prava piva za njega.

Ein weiteres CraftBier aus Zagreb. Das einzige was zu einem 100%-Bier fehlt, ist die Tatsache, dass man es als Lager nicht erkennen würde, wenn es nicht auf der aufwändig gestalteten Flasche beschrieben wäre. Dort ist der comichaft gezeichnete Professor Baltazar zu sehen wie er mit einer abstrusen Apparatur das Bier produziert. Es ist mit Pilsner Malz und Saazer Hopfen gebraut und so stark gehopft, dass es wie ein Ale wirkt. Vielleicht liegt das aber auch an der unverschämt hohen Stammwürze, die man sonst nur von diversen Doppelböcken kennt. Ein ausgezeichnetes Bier mit einem Reigen an Aromen. Besonders der beschriebene Geschmack nach Mandarine kommt durch und scheint durch die Hopfigkeit zu uns. Ein Bier, das für alle Sinne ein Fest ist.
