Bottle, 330 ml. Cloudy orange, small white head. Heavy mslty, some ripe fruit, caramel, sweet, quite strong bitter finish. Alcohol in the background. Not something I'd drink regularly, but certainly different and interesting, especially in Croatia.

Tap at Fakin. Hazy amber-orange body, lasting off white head. Malt and peach jam in the aroma. Big taste, again big maltiness and peach jam notes, quite smooth, ending with huge bitterness. Impressive in its daring, but not the best beer they've ever made really.

Bottle, 0.33l. Cloudy copper pour, one finger soapy off-white head, short lasting. No lacing on the glass. Malty nose, strong sweet caramel notes, molasses, herbal background. Medium to full body, soft carbonation. Soft on the palate, chewy texture. Starts quite on the sweet side but soon takes a turn for a liquory bitterness. Heavy malt aroma, caramel, molasses, sugar. Syrupy, candy. Mild fruity and herbal notes. Grains. Strong alcohol presence, dry, warming, lingering burn on the tongue. A bit overpowering actually, not the best balance here. A bit harsh. Medium to long lasting finish, dry and liquory. Not something I'd go back to.

On tap at Fakin Zagreb. Unclear darker golden coloured, medium sized white head, sweet malty nose. Sweet malty, caramel, alcohol, subdued butter and grain with noticable alcohol and quite harsh bitter finish. Unfortunately not so good.

On tap at Fakin Craft beer bar, Zagreb. Clear golden, small off-white head. Lightly hoppy, soft aromas, slightly hard to pick out. Citrusy and grassy hops. Light grain underneath. Some caramel. Flavour is richer, going from caramel malts to fruity hops. Berries, stone fruit, grass. Quite harsh, quite bitter. Strong. Smooth, medium body. Alcohol present. Light lasting hoppy grassy bitter finish. Hops overthrowing the lager character. Not bad but maybe a bit too much.
