0.5 l bottle at the BJCP Judging School in Žminj, thanks. Unclear golden, small off-white head. Aroma is estery at first, apple, hint of clove, toast and malts. Flavour is quite fruity, pear, toast, earthy and herbal hops. Quite bitter. Light body, smooth, not creamy, moderate carbonation, lasting dry finish.

Tap at Barbeerian, Zagreb, Croatia. Pours amber, fairly transparent, with fine whitish foam. Aroma is malty, caramel. Body is slightly above average, a little sticky, with limited carbonation. Taste is medium sweet, with just a little bit of toasty bitterness. Final is average.

Pours clear deep gold with a white head. The malty aroma has some caramel and fruity character. It’s a malty brew with bread and caramel notes. There’s mild, slightly herbal hops bitterness.

440ml can. Clear golden, big white head. Aroma of sweet bready and biscuity malts, caramel, a little marmalade. Taste has a bit more hoppiness to it than the aroma suggests, citrusy, herbal, caramel, biscuity malts, bitter finish. Medium bodied.
