330ml bottle shared by ippopotamo36 (thanks Alberto!). Pours golden with a decent white head. Aroma is messy, citrus, sewer, light metallic notes... meh! Flavour is terrible, light malt with a light bitter end. Light body, medium carbonation. Forget this beer...

Pours a beautiful golden color with medium white head. Hazy and thick appearance. Smells of orange peel, grapefruit and herbs. This is shaping up to be really nice. Taste is refreshingly bitter. Citrus, herbs, spices, hops... There’s also something that reminds me of mint present in the aftertaste. It certainly adds to overall very refreshing feel of this beer. Medium body and high carbonation. Very, very nice. Overall, loved it. Awesome!

On tap in Belgrade-Serbia. Pours cloudy dark golden color, infinitive off white cap. Nose: a bit of bread crumb, yeast. Mouth: medium carbo, a strange note of burnt sugar, did not get it. Not bad but I have to re test. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle, 0.33l. Murky orange amber color with medium frothy off-white head, sparkling appearance and yeast residue. Aroma of citrus, melon, bread and yeast. Taste starts with mild caramel, follows tart citric, yeasty and funky with mild bitter finish. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Obviously infected, but could be acceptable, if you like sauerkraut...

Sep ’14. A 0.33 l bottle from Ivana trgovina, Split. It poured hazy, dark golden body with medium sized head. Very fruity aroma, peach, sweet apple, sweet orange. Sweetish flavor as well, lacked bitterness, only some herbal and peppery notes were felt. Yeasty as well. Alcohol was well hidden in its medium body. A huge disappointment, felt too much like a homebrew. Effort is obvious, it’s a welcoming addition to Croatian beer scene which is awakening now(+1 overall), but they need to improve it, especially since this one is off the style. At least it was in September, it might have changed since then.

Pours a light brown/orange color, slightly hazy, topped with average white head. Fruity and citrusy aroma, some herbal notes too. The taste is more on the sweet side, little bitterness, but a slight unplesant tangy aftertaste. Not a real IPA, but still easily drinkable.

Bought at Svijet piva, Zagreb, Croatia. Drank at the park with Knez Domagoj and Habek. Interesting malty aroma between the hops. Not a typical IPA, pale in color, not very bitter, sweet, floral hoppyness, hints of alcohol. Light body, low carbonation, drinkable despite the alcohol.

Bottled 330ml. -from Svijet Piva Zagreb. Deep orange/pale amber coloured, small off-white head, slight perfumed light hoppy nose. Moderate malty, citrusy hoppy and touch of alcohol with notes of orange in sweetish finish. No real bitterness. Drinkable.

Shared with Motelpogo at Dva Tona (thanks!). Porued a lovely peachy amber body, murky, with an off white head. Creamy, papery malty aroma, light herbs, light alcohol... IPA? Not really. The taste is initially an even worse disappointment, meaty, yeasty, some light stupid bitterness for a sec, and then a perfumey, creamy taste breaks through, reminiscent of their Rakijarnica beers (is this an alias of Rakijarnica IPA?), herbal, slightly orange, and wins through in the end, which is a plus, making this a nicely drinkable beer which is good unless you’re expecting a proper IPA. Would’ve scored more if not for the mess. Yay, 3900!
