Carica je snažna i dominantna, a svojom čvrstom "željeznom rukom" na puk ostavlja gorak i upečatljiv okus poput ovog India Pale Ale-a (IPA).

Carica Marija Terezija (1717. - 1780.) bila je jedina žena na prijestolju Habsburške Monarhije, vrlo sposobna i odlučna, do posljednjeg daha čuvala je granice jedne od najvećih i najmoćnijih europskih država kojoj je pripadala i Hrvatska. Istaknula se brojnim reformama, a Slavoniji je podarila političko ustrojstvo obnovivši 1745. godine tri slavonske županije: Virovitičku, Požešku i Srijemsku županiju. Brojni stanovnici tih krajeva bili su pripadnici postrojbe Trenkovih pandura na čelu s Franjom Trenkom te su uz borbu protiv razbojništva u Slavoniji godinama ratovali diljem Europe za očuvanje granica Carstva. Njezinim geslom "Pravda i milosrđe" (lat. "Justicia et elementia") rekli bismo - pronađena je ravnoteža, no ipak, u njemu, baš kao i u ovom pivu, ima puno više pravde nego milosrđa.

Panda at home, thanks to Graham / Grumbo, 30/01/23. Super lively pour ... a gushing Panda! Moderately hazed golden amber with a big old lasting beige head. Nose is caramel, fruit slice, biscuit, grains, light herb. Taste comprises caramel, hint of candied orange peel, straw, grains, light breads. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with mellow grassy hop bitterness. So so IPA ... sweet, caramelly old skool set up.

0.5l bottle from Pomalo. Slightly hazy red-amber body, thick off white head, fairly lasting. Flowery aroma, lightly citric, a lot of sweetish caramel, light rose petals. Dry taste, big dark bread-caramel maltiness, some fruity touches, might as well be estery as much as hoppy from the profile. Hah, unsure how fresh this is, will deffo try it again fresh when I get there, but not really IPA-ish right now in this shape and form.

Aroma is fruity, dark cherry and other stone fruit, some strawberry and other berries. Earthy undertones. Light bready aroma with a yeasty touch. Flavour is hoppy, fruity, leaves, toast, even cocoa. Bitterness somewhat unrefined. Moderate carbonation. Not bad.

Bottle, 0.5l. Deep amber pour, three finger frothy beige head. Long lasting, very good retention, thick lacing on the glass as it goes down. Herbal and flowery nose, clean and fresh, quite nice. Medium body, high carbonation, quite fizzy. Average mouthfeel and texture. Bitter taste with nicely balanced malt sweetness and subtle sour notes here and there. Aroma of caramel malt, rye, herbs and spices. Grassy, floral, some fruity touches. Orange peel, grapefruit. Nice fruity citrus sour notes in the background, nicely balanced. Long lasting finish, dry, lingering herbal spiciness, medium bitter. Pretty good.
