Bottle, 0.50l, shared with Gregor. Pours cloudy deep amber color with thin soapy off-white head and soft visible carbonation. Aroma of tropical fruit, citrus, resin, herbs and pepper. Taste starts medium sweet grainy with toasted note, following is refreshing fruity and grassy, mouthfeel is smooth but quite dry, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, oily texture and soft carbonation in palate. Well done surprise from Vizir...

Pours a hazy fiery orange color, topped with a medium sized and medium lasting white head. Aroma is a combo of spicy belgian notes and fruity hoppy notes with citruses and stone fruits. Very solid bitterness with a dry finish and lasting aftertaste. Light with a sparkly carbonation which adds to freshness.

Pours hazy copper body with huge, creamy looking white head. Long lasting, leaving some lacing on the glass. Intense nose, hops, citrus, some caramel, slightly peppery. Medium body, regular but prickly carbonation. Texture is slightly light and watery. Mouthfeel is mostly sour with bitter aftertaste. Aroma of malts, hops, caramel, licorice, pine, grapefruit. A bit grassy and peppery. Slightly metallic taste present in the finish. Finish itself is long lasting, slightly dry and mostly bitter. Overall, nothing outstanding. It’s a good beer but there is plenty of room for improvement. Doesn’t feel like an IPA, actually. It’s closer to APA. Still, ok beer worth a try.

Pours hazy, brownish golden body with big and frothy white head. Looks almost like hefeweisen when poured. Smell is dominated by hops with some malts in the background. Medium body, softly carbonated. Watery texture. Taste is mostly sour at first and then bitter towards the finish. Aroma of malts, yeast, hops, caramel. Fruity and grassy. Medium finish. Overall, ok. Would be better without the overall sourness dominating the taste.

Pours thick and hazy copper body with small, long lasting white head that leaves lacing on the glass. Smell is interesting combination of apple, malts and liquor. Medium body, softly carbonated with thick and oily texture. Taste is initially sweet but soon switches to slightly sour and then bitter towards the finish. Aroma of malts, apple, syrup, wine, hops, caramel, licorice. Rich and interesting mixture. Mouthfeel is a bit boozy, but that’s to be expected of an 9% ABV beer. Medium long finish, slightly dry but with lasting alcohol burn on the tongue. Overall, very interesting beer to try. Not for everyone, tho. Personally, I like it.

Bottle, 0.33l. Pours hazy brown amber color with thin creamy off-white head and soft visible carbonation. Aroma of dark fruits, wine, grass,dough and more yeast. Initially seems to be spoilt, but apparently in the early stage, especially when temperature is too low for consumption. Taste starts with moderate sweet caramel, carrots and dried fruits, following is sourish fruity and grassy, mouthfeel is warm, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, syrupy texture and average carbonation in palate. Mehhh, Minimus...

Tasting at Ljubljana Beer & Whiskey Festival, 2015. Clear, yellow tea color. Small white head. Hops, candy, faint traces of chestnut. Vegetable sweetness. Very light and drinkable, lasting finish. Not sure where is all the chestnut.

Bottle, 0.50l. Hazy orange amber color with large soapy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Aroma of citrus, cereals and sauerkraut. Taste starts light sweet grainy, bready and citric, but sauerkraut quickly ruins all the joy. Mouthfeel is mild spicy with medium bitter finish. Light to medium body, slick texture and lively carbonation in palate. Imaginary pride, another disappointment from Vizir...

Pours a hazy and fiery amber color, topped with a big and lasting off-white head. Lemony citrusy feel dominates, also some flowery and sweet fruity notes in the back. More noticeable later on. Initial fruity sweetness, balanced by medium hoppy bitterness with medium aftertaste. Fresh and summery wit ha bit more body. Nice, but expected more.

Pours pitch black, topped with a huge cream colored head, very lasting. Some roasty notes in the initial aroma, covered later by hops - citrusy and pine notes, but it quickly disappears. Moderate hoppy bitterness with some chocolate in the back. Lasting aftertaste which is bittery and way too herbal - not nice. Some coffee left in the end. Medium light body, nice low alco level so easily drinkable, but it just alcks something.
