On tap at the taproom. Pours a dark brown, topped with a medium sized cream head. Mild chocolate aroma initially. Get stronger later on, some vanilla joins in as well as hints of orange - reminiscent of Jaffa cakes. Taste is minimall sweet, tad of roastiness and a nice bitterness in the finish. Slight roasty aftertaste. Very nice.

Bottle, 0.50l, shared with colleagues. Pours hazy deep amber color with small creamy white head, nice lacing and soft visible carbonation. Aroma of tropical fruits, citrus, herbs and pepper. Taste starts with moderate sweet caramel malt, follows fruity and herbal, then medicinal with rather dry mouthfeel and bitter finish. Medium body, oily texture and average carbonation in palate. Disappointment, expected much more, but it seems I have to get used to Carniola failures...

Slightly hazy warm golden colour, firm white head. Aroma of hops, quite fruity, citrus, malts, hint of pine. Bitter flavour, light sweet malts. Finish alcohol, fruity hops.

0.5 l bottle from Pivoljub, Ljubljana, Slovenia. Dark brown with reddish tint, almost no head. Doesn’t look like a stout. Green apple, this is a bad series. Acidic, non carbonated. Malty, some nuts in background. I can’t rate this.

0.5 l from Pivoljub, Ljubljana, Slovenia. Pale golden with very small off white head. Grainy, some hops, earthy. Quite balanced, light hoppy finish, but not very appetizing. Ok.

0.5l bottle. Hazy amber body, thin white head. The aroma is mostly caramelly, but also has some toast and some roasted malts maybe. Taste of caramel with a bit roasted malts and brown sugar. Quite sweet for an IPA and lacks the hop character. It’s also a bit too one dimensional, but still OK.
