Our Pale Ale is a modern interpretation of style. We have used a lot of flavorful American hops in this beer. These hops make this beer the perfect match with rich foods liker pizza, burgers or red meat. Why not bring our Pale Ale to a little island of Budlikovac near Vis? Make sure you are among friends and enjoy it with huge amounts of roasted lamb.

Bottle. A lightly hazy dark golden to amber colored beer with a small, firm off-white head. The aroma is piney and grassy with citrus zest and a touch of caramel malts. Lightly bready. Orange, some pink grapefruit and even some peach. It’s full-bodied and very nicely carbonated, perhaps a bit low on bitterness. Caramel, some dried fruits and bread in the back of the flavor, with piney, grassy hops dominating. Citrus zest and some peach and flowers chiming in. Lasting light bitter finish with fruityness dominating. This bottle was three months old, sure was better when fresh, so my numbers are based on my memories. Will soon verify by having a fresh bottle. 160910

Pours amber, quite clear, not much foam. Aroma is fruity and malty, sort of sweetish. Tastes actually relatively rough, lots of bitterness there, not really balanced but nice and definitely not bad - albeit maybe a bit average.

A bit of plastic, some apples and orange. Bitter, but not enough malt backbone. Pretty simple pale ale, but ok.

Dark golden-amber colored, hazy, medium white head. Aroma is of malt, fruity estery, some floral, citrus and fruity notes, bit soury. Taste is medium sweet malt, some caramel, estery, some fruity hops with light citrus, medium bitterness, light harshness, bit bready yeast. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, bit oily. Must say I expected more... (bottle, Scout Club Irish Pub, Samobor)

Bottled 330ml. -from Magic Beer Room Zagreb. Darker golden coloured, medium sized white head, citrusy nose. Sweet malty, citrusy hoppy, slightly floral and juicy fruity with bitter hoppy finish. Slightly herbal also. Nice brew but nothing special here indeed.

A 0.33 l bottle from Mali Ducan, Split. It poured a hazy orange body with medium to small head. Citrus and some stale malt aroma mixed up with yeast. Flavor was bitter, herbal/paper and citrus hops with still strong biscuit, bread and fruity malt counterpart. Medium in body with long lasting finish of crisp bitterness, especially citrus (orange peel) and pines. Very nice!

0.33 l bottle at Craft Room, Opatovina, Zagreb. Murky orange, small off-white head. Yeasty, citrus, orange. Lacks malty character, dusty, light hoppy. Light to medium body, medium carbonation. Abrupt finish, with just some hops left. Nothing special.

Bitter, hoppy flavour with notes of yeast and sweetish, malty and fruity touches. Rough, estery afteraste with bitterish notes. Decent.

Thanks Nebojša! I’ve been following the development of this brewery ever since it was an idea in the owner’s heads and I’ve finally had the chance to try the beer, for now brewed in Norway. Darker golden/amber body, slight haze perhaps, big white head, medium retention. Fine aromas mixing jaffa cake-like orange notes, light herbal, biscuity and vaguely yeasty notes (for a second). taste... more of the same lovely orange notes, bready, earthy bitterness moving into a long, complex bitter aftertaste. Very well executed beer,.
