Panda thanks to Cloin for this Greek haul! Near clear gold beer, a few pale cream colour bubbles are gone in a jiffy. Minerally crisp palate. Light malts, a light creamy sweetness. Crisp cooling pine into a markedly candy fruits affair, like Opal Fruits and a little marshmallow. Crisp finish. A pastry dipa? One is amused!

Bottle at the hotel, picked up from Barley Cargo, Athens 11/10/24. First rake on my birthday and as a 50 something ! Ww ... Think I join some RB Xeniors Clube ... fuck you Gary !!! Hazed orange topped with a just off white cap that thins to a swirl. Nose is sweet tropicana, kumquat, melon, papaya, pineapple, soft malts. Taste comprises mandarin, Um Bongo, pineapple, sweet tropicana, mandarin, papaya, mango pulp. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close splashed with juicy hop bitterness. Okay easy drinker but a touch on the sweet side.

Bottle from altalasworld, platanies, crete. aroma:very first impressionwas dough, then some bitter hops. aroma is like an underplayed strong ipa or dipa. flavor is sweet malts and sweet hops, sort of west coast US style, but the sweetness is even more intense, white sugar, the light colored sugar that resembles brown sugar, dough, pine and grapefruity hops. Very sweet double ipa with not entirely enough hops to balance that malty sweetness. still quite nice, i like the style a lot.
