Tap at the brewpub. Golden body, white head. Tart herbal-flowery aroma, maybe mild phenols, but the flowery/tea-like notes dominate. Sweetish taste, quite pleasant tea notes, mild hoppy touches perhaps, ending slightly bitterish. Quite pleasant really, a tad too tart for my tastes, but overall quite okay and interesting. Love that they are experimenting as much as they are.

0,5 l on tap at Leopold's Delicatessen bar. Pours yellow, very light amber with dense lasting white head. Aroma was mix of soap, tropical fruit and citrus. Flavor follows aroma, like chewing on very hoppy bar of soap. Taste is light sweet and medium bitter. Body was on the light side, texture slick and carbonation average, Finish was medium long, like very hoppy and quite bitter bar of soap. Unfortunately this one was very soapy, it could have been very nice session IPA, very hoppy, bitter and light as far as alcohol goes. It was very likely first glass they poured, that could be the reason for... Nope, it was just soapy. Despite that, it was still good enough to finish the glass.

0,5 l on tap at Leopold's Delicatessen bar. Pours murky yellow with dense white lasting head. Aroma is mild banana, some citruses and grainy wheat, head had pronounced sour scent ans slightly stale too. Taste is light sweet and light bitter. Body was light, texture slick and carbonation average. Finish was on the short side, mild bitterness with distinct sour note. While it has the makings of really good hefe it was too sour. In particular head was sour and slightly stale. Due to pronounced sourness it was really refreshing though. It was very likely first glass they poured, that could be the reason for stale and excessively sour head. Serves me for drinking beer in the morning... Still I cannot give it a higher rate.

On tap at Hop In Zagreb. Muddy ochre coloured, small to medium sized creamy white head, light passionfruit and yeast in the nose. Moderate malty, juicy, notes of yeast and passionfruit. Light notes of lactose and hops. Too fruity for my taste.

Tap at the brewery. Hazy dark amber body, thick off white head. Flowery and herbal creamy aroma, slightly caramelly. Caramelly, sweetish smooth malty backbone, ending dry and bitterish. Flowery hoppy note. No technical issues, pretty much a nice beer, though it is what it is. Again, good job!

On tap at Leopold's. Multiple times. :D Poured a murky yellow body with a thick white head. Nice banana-driven aroma, very nice in fact, with, at times, some clove phenols breaking through and at others a herbal touch too. Taste... actually very much a nice, solid, slightly mild hefeweizen, bananas up front, wheat malt, cloves at times, balanced by the stylistically above-average hoppiness that really just gives a light bitterish herbal touch - which actually helps a lot. More balanced than most hefes. Actually somewhere between the average hefe and a hopfenweisse, wouldn't call it one outright. Now, there's some room for improvement, maybe body-wise slightly, but for a style that's that tricky to make well, on the first try, props. Will see how subsequent batches compare.
