Description
Notos is a brewery and taproom located in a commercial part of Heraklion not far from the center. We are the first independent micro-brewery in the city of Heraklion, but also in eastern Crete. The inspirers of the idea are Antonis Tampakakis, George Neroladakis, Costas Verigos (head brewer) and Lambros Petsalakis who started home brewing in 2010. It took another 6 years for the process of creating the brewery to begin. We produce fresh unfiltered beer with natural carbonation.

Bottle. Hazy, dirty orange, larger just slightly offwhite head, very lasting. Ripe sweet peachy nose with some citruses. Milder bitterness, hints of sweetness. Gentle aftertaste. Light. Nicely drinkable, though doesn't stand out.

5 October 2019. Bottle from the brewery's stand at Cretan Gastronomy days. Post-Amabieris Tasting. Cheers to Ama Deke, Tim & Anke! Hazy ochre with a lasting, thin, frothy, off-white head. Aroma of citrus, mandarin, green banana, yellow apple, wort, pear. Taste is light fruity sweet, restrained banana & apple over sourish citrus, some bitter grass & mango, bready maltiness. Dry, grassy hoppy finish, quite yeasty, a bit spicy, still some yellow fruit in the back. Medium body, oily texture, fizzy carbonation. Clean, refreshing.
