Stubby 33cl bottle. Pours a clear gold, a cap of white head. Nose is OK, cheap malt, dried grass, a little skunky. Flavor is basic malt, some peppery hop, a little cardboard, some treacle. Off dry, flabby. Could be worse though.

No smell. Hazy golden colour, creamy white head. Aroma of malt, yeast, fruity finish. It's like they have used some weizen yeast here? Mostly sweet. Lively carbon. Weird, but beats any bulk lager any time.

Enormous thanks ippopotamo36 for the growlers! Hazy golden body, tinged with amber. Huge, rough cereal aroma, sweetish, light herbal touches here and there, trace diacetyl maybe, though definitely not up front. Simple soft sweetish taste, almost no hops really, just the simple, dull sweetish maltiness - allegedly due to the low quality malt from a Serbian malt producer. Slightly soapy and grainy, husky. Messy blend of flavors on a surprisingly nice body, drinkable really. Well, I can’t say I’m impressed by the beer overall, it needs some more tweaking, but I’m thrilled to have tried and glad that it exists and that new producers are brewing beer in those parts. I hope to try it at some point in the future fresh and tweaked.

On tap at City Sport restaurant in Gremnik/Grebnik (Kline/Klina) - Kosovo. Cloudy golden pour a bit dark, little white foam. Nose: a bit of a sweet malt feel, citric too. Mouth: medium-high carbonation, balanced tough a bit sweet, the finish lacks bitterness although is very promising. Solid and a good start which opens room to great improvement.
