Slightly hazy golden pour with a small white head. Aromas of malt, citrus, herbs. Taste is quite similar, nice bitter finish. Not your usual pilsener, but not bad.

450ml can. Hazy golden body, patchy surface, dotted spots on the glass. Fresh aroma of passion fruits and citrus, inviting. Well blended hop fruity taste with apricot up front joined by orange and peaches. Drying close with a solid bitter twist, long lived. Enjoying. Shared with Frau Eva (Chania, 23.06.2026).

450ml can, as Black Dipa (amarillo) 8 % abv, 65 IBU. Tiny beige head over a deep black-brownish body, spotty lacing. Attractive in the nose, lightly roasted malt and ripe fruits. Dry hopped taste added by caramel malts and oats. Rounded long lived taste, bitter and mildly smoked. Good drinking. (Chainia, 23.06.2026).

Can courtesy of Kostas, Kykao brewery. Consumed at home Tuesday 9th June 2026 listening Huw Stephens on 6Music who are playing tracks from Primervera Festival. We're having Gorgonzola Macaroni Cheese with a nice salad. Pours very light silver colour with a very slight haze, a few stray bubbles dance across the surface. Refreshing, light/mid hoppiness, some tropical touches. It's nice, but it's not a beer. Score: 6.8
