0.33 l bottle. Thanks, Višnja 666 and Pilot Goran! Black with a red tint, lasting head. Roast-hop balance, citrus hops, liquorice, light alcohol, fruit. Bitter with a nice balance. Full body, medium carbonation, excellent finish - hoppy with a background sweetness. Very good, almost impressive.

Black with medium beige head. Aroma is cocoa, fruits. Taste is bitter coffe, chocolate, slight sweet fruit, resin. Smooth but a bit spiky still. Not bad, but not great either.

Bottle, 0.50l. Pours pitch black with large soapy light brown head and good lacing. Aroma of tropical fruit, citrus, roasted malt, chocolate, nuts and pine. Taste starts refreshing fruity, follows by rich roasted malt, coffee and chocolate, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, cream texture and average carbonation in palate. Very good...

Bottled 500ml. -at Craft Room Zagreb. Almost black coloured, medium sized creamy beige head, fruity hoppy nose. Light roasted malt, decent herbal fruity hoppy, moderate bitterness and touch of alcohol in rather bitter finish and aftertaste. Another very good brew from Hopsbrew.

Bottle. Craft Room. Blackish, tan head. Smooth, pleasant aroma, tangerine and herbal notes. Some smooth coffee. Despite the lovely aroma, the taste is slightly underwhelming. Light, soft, smooth, rondo c, bitter, bit roasty, lightly herbal. Ok balance. Not much bitterness. Ok, drinkable, but not thrilling.

Pours deep black and topped with large and nicely lasting beige head. Pleasant and pretty intense hoppy nose with tropical fruits and citruses. Gentle chocolate in the back which also gives a bit of sweetness. Solid hoppy bitterness with roasty finish which is even stronger in the aftertaste. Lighter body with very hidden alcohol level. Very nice.
