Tap at Protokol/Prostor and then at Crew Bar. Seems that John Lemon is now brewed at Mandrill, potentially a different recipe. Misty orange-golden body, white head. Smooth, creamy aroma, citric and a bit spicy, phenolic. Smooth, lightly tart citric taste, somewhat herbal, nicely spicy, rosemary and suchlike. Well balanced and tasty wit!

From tank at the brewery. Reddish body, some head that went away soon. Slightly funky, but pleasant cherry-driven aroma. Sweet cherry-driven taste, not overdone but notable not meady-sweet all the way, light honey / fermented honey meady notes, vaguely funky so. I mean, this isn't half-bad as a beverage - I could easily have had more, and I see people who like this kind of stuff going for it. It's very much far from what a mead is though originally, tugging at the edges of the style. I see this scoring both slightly higher and much lower with others.

0.5 l bottle from Pomalo Beer Store, Zagreb. Shared with the Vulture Brewery. Hazy golden, medium white head. Intense yeasty, phenolic, fruity, slightly funky flavour. Kveik gone wild or some Brett presence. Flavour is bretty yeasty, funky, phenolic, spicy. Overwhelming. Light body. No malty or hoppy character whatsoever. Dry finish.

Tap at the Mandrill Pub. The original is the default I guess. Hazy deep yellow body, lasting white head. Coconut, woody, lightly citric-orange Wolf aroma. Light tangerine taste, coconut, wood notes, typical wolf, light, soft, drinkable. Not in your face - quite a clean kveik presence. Not bad at all.

Tap at Mandrill. Clear golden body, thick white head. Citric light tangerine juice notes, soft aroma. Soft light clean grainy-citric-tangerine and grape touches, taste. Bitterish finish. Okay balance. Solid pale, much better than what I had before.

Tap at the new Leopold's. Initially brewed for St. Patrick's Day... but the opening and the party were delayed... oh well. Hazy chestnut-brown body, off-white head. Tart raisin aroma, light chocolate below, hmm... Chocolate and raisins in the somewhat lightly tart taste too. You can tell it's old sadly, but still drinkable.
