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.

Bottled, thanks MarkoNm! Clear amber, small head. Rich herbal nose. Mid sweet with medium body and well rounded mouthfeel. Caramelly and herbal, mild and soothing. Low bitterness.

Pours a hazy light brown color, topped with a very decent off-white head, nice retention. Very pleasant caramel aroma, very biscuity and buttery. Some herbal notes. Taste starts sweet, with notes of caramel. Some moderate bitterness in the end with some herbal notes in the aftertaste. Another great brew from Carniola.

On tap at Brežice Beer Fest. Murky orange/ochre coloured, small off white head, light hoppy nose with hint of passion fruit. Sweetish malty, hoppy, slight dusty alcoholic and touch of spices with bitter fruity spicy finish. Light perfumed also. So far unbalanced but there’s big potential.

On tap at Brežice Beer Fest. Deep black coloured, medium sized beige head, caramel and whiff of tobacco in the nose. Roasted malt, caramel, milk chocolate and slight buttery. Some dark chocolate and hops in the finish. Very good stout...but unfortunately few days later had this one from the bottle bought on the same Fest which was (far) worse.

Bottled 500ml. -at Brežice Beer Fest. Hazy dark amber coloured, medium sized creamy off-white head, mild acidic Speculaas nose with a whiff of cinnamon. Sweet malty, again Speculaas and cinnamon with mild spicy hoppy notes. Nice one.

Brežice Beer Fest (almost a lost rate). Murky dark amber body with a good off white head. Aroma... something between Speculaas and ginger, only in gummi bear form. If that means anything... in any case, very pleasant indeed. The taste is a bit thin, peppery, cloves, something like that, vaguely sweet. Ah, it’s OK for a spice beer - the taste’s a mild disappointment after the aroma, but I’d have it again.
