#PošipAle je svijetlo pivo fermentirano s moštom od pošipa, kombinirano s autohtonim kvascima (porijeklom s grožđa) i selekcioniranim kvascima. S vinskim i pivskim okusima zaigrali smo se u suradnji s Vinarija Teskera / Winery Teskera gdje je naša Ana spajala svoje prve pumpe. Tako je i sazrela ideja o pivu s dalmatinskom sortom bijelog grožđa - ni manje ni više nego pošipom! Obožavatelji ove lokalne bijele sorte i vinoljupci dočekali su napokon svojih pet minuta 🍷
Pri kušanju ovog piva, vaše nosnice dočekat će fini miris meda, slada i grožđa uz malo karamele i kruha. U okusu i dalje dominira pivo, ali s pozadinom finog pošipa i završetkom poluslatkog okusa vina! 😋

0.5 l bottle from Spicy Days, Zagreb. Shared with Višnja 666, little Dina and Jadran. A gusher. Hazy darker amber, small off-white head. Aroma is mild fruity, ripe fruit, figs, white grapes, berries, some spice. Sweetness. Tart. Some cardboard and ripe fruit in the flavour. Some malty notes, toasted malts. Soft, medium body, moderate carbonation, dry finish. Not bad, some flaws, very mild, but makes sense. A difficult beer to make, so well done girls and guys.

Bottle, 0.5l. Hazy deep amber pour, thin soapy off-white head, short lasting. Minimal lacing on the glass. Nose is quite weak and undefined. Sour and fruity hints, grapes, caramel. Light body, lively carbonation. Watery mouthfeel and texture, fizzy. Light sour and tart taste, mild sweetness in the background. Aroma of grapes, grains and malt. Quite basic and also quite watery. Medium lasting finish, tart. Not every experiment is successful I guess. Watery and bland.

Bottle from CroCraft & more. Murky dark amber body, medium to small off-white head with medium retention. Pungent aroma really, white grape jam seems like a good descriptor, quite jammy, with some spices as well, a bit flowery, a bit soapy. Lean taste... quite interesting, pleasant, cloves and other spices building up, thin though. This one is easily dismissable on first taste without smelling it or dwelling on it but it grows on you as it warms. The grape profile is quite in the background, giving some sweetness probably, vague raisin touches, but that might be a fuller body. Okay, this is genuinely tasty in my opinion, and I'm glad it is. Especially since it uses a grape variety usually only grown on a couple of islands - grown in the Dalmatian hinterland.
