Be wary this season. There’s no telling what the night breeze might bring in through the window.

If misfortune has you in its sights, you might be receiving a surprise visit from a rather grim, dark figure that you’ll find paws deep into your carrot patch.

Next time drink your sour beer fresh and maybe you won’t attract bad company such as the Sourpuss.

Canned 500ml. -at Goblet Zagreb, shared with Marko & hrabren (without Mak and Darko M). Blackish/deep purple coloured, small purple head that went away fast, candy and some spices in the nose. Candy, light vanilla, spices, quite dry ans sweetish acidic finish. Semi artificial. Not so thick.

Can at Goblet, shared with Ogi and Hrabren (and Mak, and Darko M...:). Reddish-tinged blackish dark purple body, purpleish head. Whoa. Huge pastry aroma, enormous vanilla, cheesecake notes, fruitiness. Lean taste, soft, huge vanilla, some fruity notes, soapy touches, ending towards a tart finish. I mean, this was actually likable in a weird way, the carrot profile was somewhere there and it felt it just needed another frutiy touch to work on the light taste. Quite drinkable, people liked it and were surprised for liking iit. Good joob, HopHools!
