Using 6 different types of speciality malt and 5 different hop varieties this Red IPA will show the uninitiated what craft beer is all about and remind the converted why they love it so much!

Pours a hazy coppery color, topped with a small and non-lasting tan had. Biscuity malty nose with some resin feel, as well as slight peach notes. Medium bitterness with solid malty backbone. Short bittery aftertaste. Medium body. Ok.

0.5 l bottle at Vintage Industrial Bar, Zagreb. Amber to ruby red, medium off-white head. Aroma is heavy caramel, toast, floral hops, dry fruits. Medium body, medium carbonation, rich bitterness at first, but fades rather quickly. Pitty. Very light fruity, grassy and even herbal finish. Really not bad for a style.

Bottled, from Za Popen’t Pivoteka, Ljubljana, Slovenia. Clear nut brown, small head. Peaty nose with some grapefruit. Dryish with medium body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Peaty and roasty with some citrus. Mild resiny bitterness. Pretty much an Irish ale with extra hops.

Probao sam točenu verziju. Izvrsne arome i okusa. Ima gorki aftertaste koji se lijepo upotpunjava sa citrusnim okusom pive. Izvrsna piva.
