Strossmayer je jako, kompleksno, slatkasto, tamno pivo. U okusu se isprepliću note suhih smokava, grožđica, šljiva te suptilna nota banane.

We visited Pivnica Medvedgrad Samoborska, Friday 29th August 2025 after a 6-7 hour drive from home, we walked here from Zmajska Pivovara. However I had this back at Frank in the carpark of Zmajska Pivovara. Btw I had Pivnicke Kobasice sa Zapecenim Grahom for tea and stupidly ordered a side order of chips it was huge (Sausages with Homemade Baked Beans). Anyway onto the beer, Pours brownish coloured with a small/medium sized beige head, nose suggests this is going to be super sweet, molasses, malt, dried fruits. Taste is very malty, have to confess I was confused by this and the other bottles I picked up tonight and thought this was the barley wine. Alcohol a little too prevalent, sweetness a bit too much, usual Belgian characteristics are hidden somewhat. *Parking update, I guy came and knocked on the door, we shouldn't have been parking here as it's private property (he was security) he was super nice let us off.

33cl bottle at Fakin Craft Bar, Zagreb, Croatia. Pours dark brown, with a nice head of light brown foam, fine. Aroma is of caramel and molasses, some chocolate. Not intense, though. Body is rather thick, sticky, with moderate carbonation. Taste is clearly sweet, persisting partially into the final.

Bottled courtesy of and shared with Hrabren. Murky brown body, tan head. Alcohol in the otherwise nutty aroma, dried plums, caramel malt. Sugary, sweet taste, brown sugar, alcohol, dried caramel, meeeeh, stale, alcoholic. Sorry, a mess, the yeast and its effects are just overwhelmed by the enormous maltiness.
