Description
Solo was founded by Norwegian ex-pat Kjetil Jikiun and their brewery was opened in 2018. Σόλο (Solo) ...Your Cretan Craft Beer: Originated from Crete, Σoλo is not just any beer but a craft beer with soul. Anthropocentric, proud and uncompromising by nature, obsessed with the idea that good beer is a human right, Σολο is addressed to all of you who desire a perfect beer. Furthermore, rather than brewing for the sake of profit, Σολο creates & experiments while calling beer lovers and enthusiasts for interaction with the belief that much more than beer, craft beer is human contact. In other words, Σολο comes into existence through people, togetherness, friendship and sharing of ideas, emotions and everything that makes our moments worth living for.

7.8/10 Appearance 6 Aroma 8 Flavor 8 Texture 8 Overall 8
Tap @ Både &. Slightly unclear, deep golden body with a dense, lacing off-white head. Aroma is distinct malty with some toffee, citric fruit, ripe peach, pine and orange peel. Flavor is medium sweet malt, some toffee, bread, citric fruit, ripe peach, marmalade, hint of pine and sharp, pleasant bitterness. Fine body and long lasting malty, ripe fruit and bitter aftertaste. Nice, slightly lesser sweet old school IPA.

Bottle from Beergium. Aroma is bicuity malt, herbal hops, pine, fruity notes with a touch of stone fruits and orange. Flavour is above moderate sweet with a bitter finish. Body is medium. Not exactly a fruitbomb, but this has a nice bittersweet herbal hop profile. Quite enjoyable

Bottle from Beergium. Aroma is hops, citrus, biscuity malt, some caramel, soft herbal notes, orange, some pine resin and floral notes. Flavour is moderate sweet with a bitter finish. Body is medium with very lively carbonation. Not a bad APA, hardly a fruity hop homb but has some nice floral and herbal notes.

7.6/10 Appearance 8 Aroma 8 Flavor 7 Texture 8 Overall 7.5
Bottle from Beergium. Aroma is roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, liquorice, espresso, with a touch of fruity hops and dark fruits in the finish. Flavour is medium sweet and bitter. Body is medium to full. Not extreme in any way, which may be a good thing, because this one has a nice smooth balance, plus the kind of roasty coffee choc flavours I like in my Imperial Stout. Yes, a fine example of the style.
