Bottle, 0.5l. Cloudy deep copper pour, half finger soapy white head, sticky lacing on the glass. Herbal and grassy notes on the nose, ripe tropical fruits, floral. Light to medium body, medium to high carbonation, lively. Fizzy, prickly mouthfeel, lightweight texture, easily drinkable. Balanced bittersweet taste. Aroma of malt, ripe tropical fruits, grass and herbs. Light citrus notes, earthy touches, minerals. Some yeasty notes in the background. Short lasting finish, slightly dry, lingering herbal bitterness. Quite ok.

0.5l bottle from Pomalo. Hazy deep amber body, thick off white head. Jammy citric notes, apricot, quite okay really, light coconut. Taste... definitely light coconut, soft, thin. Surely they have changed their hops, or they are just coming through better now - this is now so much better than the other guys are describing, though still not quite a top tier pale ale, far from it. Wonder which hops they used, they are classically for German aromatics, shy, but still interesting enough. A subdued everyday beer.

0.5 l bottle from Pomalo Beer Shop, Zagreb. Shared with Marko, thanks. Hazy golden to orange, small lasting off-white head. The aroma is herbal, citrusy, lightly fruity and malty. A yeasty touch, malty, bready, slightly sweet, almost candy. Might be a weird selection of yeast. Herbal touch, not really bitter. Medium body, moderate to high carbonation, light finish.

Bottled 500ml. -Unclear golden coloured, small to medium sized white head, wet hay in the nose. Grassy, wet hay, some cereals and slightly buttery with short finish. Not to be sold anywhere. Unfortunately below average even for home brew standards.
