Enormous thanks to Višnja666 for sharing this with Hrabren & me & her boys Toni&Marin for bringing this from the States! Love how the labels says drink fresh and yet we couldn't find the bottled-on date anywhere. Oh well. Shiny clear amber body with a lasting slightly off-white head. Good hoppy aroma - onions and tropical fruit, ice tea. Not bad really. The taste might reveal why it's a winter IPA - caramel-malt driven, peach, tea. No bitterness, just light herbal touches. Actually, quite nice. Not mind-blowing but a nice, different IPA.
