The Crazy Donkey label signifies the first IPA (India Pale Ale) produced in Greece. Received with enthusiasm by beer aficionados near and far, the Crazy has travelled to Australia, the US, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland and the UK. Large quantities of Cascade and Nelson Sauvin hops yield a plethora of aromatic bitterness - marrying an arguably tropical start to a dry finish, for a distinctly different drinking adventure.

Produced in very limited quantities.

Panda at home, thanks to the Mark the Bearded Avenger, 20/12/2025.
Moderately hazed golden amber topped with an off white cap that veers to the edge.
Nose is orange peel, grass, biscuit, hint of caramel.
Taste comprises tangerine, grass, caramel, biscuit, straw.
Medium bodied, fine carbonation, light drying close with mellow hop bitterness.
Tired feeling old skool leaning IPA.

Bottle from me boss. Clear amber. Foamy translucent white head. Aroma has spice, resin and caramel. Flavourwise it has a big resinous and quinine streak. Some peripheral citrus. Underlying chewy malts and caramel. Spice. Light-medium bodied. Slick. Sticky lips. Soft-fizzy carbonation. Long dry somewhat astringent finish. Decent oldschool IPA.

Old rating from 27-06-15 - 750ml bottle from the brewery, which I visited on a walk across the island. Poured at home in Jersey, it's dark amber with a white foamy head. Aromas & tastes of orange peel, grapefruit, treacle, toast, hints of spice & malt. Medium body. Medium bitter finish. Highly enjoyable

750ml bottle. Hops kick-ass India Pale ale. piekna stylowa butelka z ciemnego szkla, srebrna etykieta, chmiel australijski, bardzo zywiczny, goryczkowo-wrzosowy posmaczek. Sporo tej chmielowosci, oraz piany, byla trwala i naprawde spora, niczym ilosc bestialsko wymordowanych niewinnych ludzi we wsi Michniow przez Niemcow. Bardzo piwo jest metne, niefiltrowane, jak zawsze, ciemne barwa ciemnego bursztynu. Konkretna i bez sciemy IPA
