Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Bottled 330ml. from local Plodine Karlovac. Dark golden coloured, small to medium sized white to off-white head, light caramel and herbs in the nose. Sweet malty, caramel, light herbal hops and subdued citrus and fruits. Sweetish finish as well. So-so.

Bottle from the Taxfree on M/S Gabriella, Hel-Sto. Clear dark golden with a large white head. Sweetish with flowers, malt, citrus and light hops. The finish was medium bitter. Quite thin to be honest, nothing to write home about.

Bottle, Full amber body, white head. Dull, extremely heavy caramelly notes make way here and there for random berry-like hoppy notes. Excessively bitter beer, stupidly so even, tampered with some mildly nice fruity notes behind (maybe the grapefruit concentrate), oh, and gigantic caramel behind too, of course. Though admittedly not the freshest beer around, this tastes like a caricature of an IPA made up by someone disliking them ("just throw a shitload of bittering hops in, that's all they care for"). At miliseconds it doesn't taste aaas bad... but then the clashing, unbalanced interplay of flavor kicks in. Smooth taste but ends dry. Would have dissed it even more if it was more fresh... Useless.

Bottle, 0.33l. Clear amber pour, two finger frothy off-white head. Medium retention, minimal lacing. Not so impressive on the nose, wet grass, stale hops, citric acid notes. Shapes up to be a massive fail this one. Thin body, soft to medium carbonation. Average mouthfeel, watery texture. Mild bitter taste with some sour notes. Aroma of caramel malt, citric acid, cardboard and wet grass. Peppery and metallic. Mild hops and grains in the aftertaste. Dry finish, mild bitter and metallic. Overall... What a waste. I want my money back. And I need a beer.

Bottle from Hogs Back Brewery. Thin watery bitter quinine attempt at a IPA. Drinkable, just.
