Pours a hazy fiery orange, topped with medium just a slightly off-white head. Banan notes, with some spices and quite notable citruses, doing into more grainy notes. Gently sweet with citrusy bitterness, a bit of spices in the aftertaste. Not so "wheaty" as is typical for weizens.

Pours a hazy sunny golden color, topped with a minimal creamy white head. Citrusy nose, not too intense but still pretty decent, with grapefruit in charge. Some sweet fruity notes as well, also in the start. Followed by medium bitterness and citrusy, slightly acidic, finish. Short bittery aftertaste. Light body. A decent one.

On tap at the Medulin festival. Darker amber-red body. Aroma... diacetyl, light herbal touch, melon. Diacetyl, caramel and tea mixing with tropical fruit in the taste, not that bitter. OK beer, imperfect but interesting, which seems to be the norm for Carniola.

Bottle, 0.50l. Hazy amber brown color with large soapy tan like color, lots of yeast residue and average sparkling appearance. Aroma of yeast, citrus, herbs, mild honey and caramel. Taste starts with medium sweet biscuit malt, follows by ripe fruits, yeast and bubblegum, mouthfeel finishes rather dry, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. Not the best choice for International Beer Day, but at least nothing wrong with this brew...
