Barba je svijetlo ale pivo laganog i pitkog tijela. Lagano je zahmeljeno hmeljevima Cascade, Columbus, Mosaic i Simcoe, koji su pivu dali cvjetnu, citrusnu i tropsku notu. Ovaj Pale Ale će vas svojom profinjenom gorčinom i primamljivim aromama savršeno uvesti u svijet craft piva. Kako bi zadržalo svjež okus hmelja i slada, potrebno ga je čuvati na hladnom i piti svježe.
Initially brewed with Centennial, Chinook and Columbus. Since April 2025 changed from 5.4% to 5% and produced at Zmajska pivovara.
Previous description:
BARBA Pale Ale is the headlining beer coming out of First Local Craft Brewery called LAB Split. Barba is product of years of home-brewing experience and testing. Idea behind the BARBA was to create American Pale Ale best suited for hot Mediterranean summers. You can expect dry to medium body, leaving smooth sweetness mouth-feel, combined with bitter touch of carefully selected American Hops (Centennial, Chinook and Columbus) with silky bitter aftertaste produced by process of first wort hopping.
Centennial - Medium with floral and citrus tones,
Chinook - Mild to medium-heavy, spicy, piney, and grapefruity,
Columbus - Earthy, citrus & spicy

Golden color, with a small white head. The aroma is fruity hoppy, citrus, grapefruit. Taste is malty, with again the fruity notes of the hops. Medium bitterness, very well balanced and enjoyable. Medium carbonation. Very easy to drink, you would drink more and more. Nice beer.

Bottle at Istria trip. Hazy goldish without head. Aroma won’t amaze you as well, it’s more sweet than hoppy. Taste unremarkable, bitter, dry finish. Nice try though. May work well for Adriatic summer.

5.4% alk. Jedan stvarno odličan pale ale. Lijepo gorak, skoro kao IPA, ali naravno manje mirišljava od IPA-e. Svima koji vole gorke pive će se ovo svidjeti, dakle nije za svakoga.
