Smash APA 12° - Talus

Bottle. Golden color with medium white head. Hoppy aroma with floral, citrus and herbal notes. Taste starts caramelly, complemented by soft hoppy bitterness. Could be better balanced, but easy drinkable.

Draught at festival 3. výročí první várky pivovaru Cobolis. Almost clear, gold colored. AROMA- clean, meadow, flowery, floral, herbs. FLAVOR- neutral, slightly bitter, the same as aroma. Medium bodied. Average one.

Tap at Zastavka. Med-thin body, med-high carbonation. Unpleasant perfumey character, a bit of high alcohols. Other than that, there is light crystaly sweetness, medium bitterness. General fruitiness in terms of hops character, light resiny. Not really standing out in any way. Not great, not terrible.

Bottle from BaseCamp. Slightly hazy shiny orange-golden body, off white head, thick, medium retention. Pleasant hoppy, fruity aroma, soft, light coconut and lime and wild strawberries. Lean, dry taste, soft coconut-lime combo, simple, effective, tasty, trace vanilla and other fruity touches pop up here and there, and the wild herbal side popped up late in the game. Too watery for its own good all in all, but completely clean, and the hop just works. Trace grainy notes do pop in very rarely and subtly, and that's it for the malty side, the beer has next very little to no residual sweetness, just dried out. All in all, really glad I got a big one, definitely a good little SMASH APA.
