Värskete mandariinidega hägune troopiline iPA. / Hazy Tripical IPA with fresh Mandarins.
Collaboration brew with Mlinarica Brewery from Croatia. Zesty Bastard is a hazy IPA with fresh Mandarin Zest and Juice and New Zealand hops – Nectaron and Riwaka. Four days were spent zesting and juicing 200kg of mandarins for this brew and it’s truly a tropical and zesty experience.

Can, 0.33l. Cloudy golden pour, one finger frothy white head, medium retention, sticky lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, mandarine juice, candy, hints of honey.
Medium body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, chewy, creamy. Sweet taste balanced with mild bitterness in the background. Aroma of mandarins, tangerine, citrus peel. Strong on the malt side, sugary, candy, honey. Some mild herbal notes. Tea leaves. Sticky. Mild alcohol. Medium lasting finish, sweet.
A bit too sweet and malty. Not as juicy as I hoped for either. Also surprisingly flat. Definitely expected a bit more out of this one.

0.33l can. Hazy yellow-golden body, off-white head. Heaps of tangerine juice in the aroma, a ginormous amount to be more precise. Smooth, sweetish, juicy taste, mandarin, light maltiness, bit herbal, ending dry. Very little of the base beer remains flavor-wise... Elevated carbonation too, not really juicy in that regard. Fun!

33cl can from Sip, Tallinn. Pours hazy yellow to golden with a white head. Fruity aroma with ripe mandarins and tropical fruit. Medium to moderate sweet with medium flavour intensity and bitterness on the lighter side. Easy to drink and fairly refreshing.
