Cold IPA.
Naši pivari ponovno su se zaigrali, a već znate da tako nastaju piva o kojima se priča duuugo, dugo. Iskusni pogađaju, predstavljamo novi specijal u Brewer´s Concoction seriji: Frostbite. Stil - prvi put skuhan kod nas - Cold IPA. Najkraće objašnjeno - IPA fermentirana s lager-kvascem i gomilom hmelja. Frostbite ima ugodnih 6,8% ABV i 60 IBU-a, srednje tanko tijelo i suh završetak. A na hmelju se nije štedjelo. Mosaic, Citra i Cascade dali su citrusne i arome blagog tropskog voća s nježnom naznakom mirisa šume i borovine

Can, 0.5l. Cloudy golden pour, thin soapy white head, short lasting. Slight lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, herbal and fruity, hints of citruses and pineapple. Medium body, average carbonation. Nice mouthfeel and texture, moderately thick and chewy, soft, slight oiliness. Aroma of herbs and spices. Fruity, citruses and pineapple, tropical notes in the background. Malty backbone. Moderate lingering bitterness that gets stronger towards the finish. Hints of alcohol, subtle hop burn. Medium lasting finish, dry and bitter. Quite enjoyable.

Hazy golden, white medium head, medium resistance. Strong and spicy, pepper aroma. It continues in taste, with some fruit, herbs, but it's bitter and agressive and hides fruitness. Medium bodied, not easily drinkable. Moderatelly hoppy with lack of fruit in aroma and taste. Not for everybody.

0.5 l can shared with little Dina, Ogi and Marko. Accidentally frozen. Slushy hazy golden. Aggressively hoppy, grassy, onion, herbs, some spice. Flavour develops, nice hoppy tropical notes. Sweet, medium body, moderate carbonation, moderate finish.

Can, enormous thanks Ana! Misty golden body, slightly off white head. Pineapple and onion in the aroma. White grapes and wild herbs in the aroma, sweetish, ending bitterish. Genuinely tasty, it works - even though we'd had it in eised form inadvertedly. Will rerate with elaboration soon enough.
