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.

Bottle from Žabac. Dark amber-golden body, way too dark for the suggested style, white head. Looks nice, mind you. The aroma is strangely fruity-sweetish, almost artificial/perfumey, Caramel and strange chewed up bubblegum. Dunno, just meh. Honeyish, sweetish taste, heaps of honey, a bit flowery, almost a touch of anise, slightly less artificial than the aroma, but at the same time strangely dry and just not moreish. Trace hop bitterish touches, don't help. Just... not a great beer, not unbalanced, unappealing notes, slightly hard to drink.

Il gusto al naso va su orzo, frumento e avena. L'intensità olfattiva è normale e la continuità olfattiva è sufficiente. Il cappello di schiuma ha una discreta resistenza, sebbene sia di schiuma scarsa. La grandezza delle bollicine è media. La carbonazione è bassa. Il liquido è di apparenza limpida. La frizzantezza si manifesta sotto forma di bollicine fini. La carbonazione è nella norma, con velocità di ascesa vivace. Il colore è ambrato carico. Il corpo è rotondo. Il dolce è medio e l'amaro è medio. L'intensità gustativa è normale. La costanza gustativa è sufficiente. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali sono di pronta beva. Il finale è semplice e dissetante. Il retrogusto è di media intensità. Sulla lingua si depositano sensazioni di caramello, miele, biscotto, frumento e cereali.
