Description
Innovative, promising and high-quality microbrewery. This are the significant words that describe our young team of Green Gold Brewing from Savinja Valley in the heart of Slovenia. And if you ask us about our distinctive characteristic, we would definitely say that there is something about the place where we live, breath and work. Why so? Our hometown is one of the most significant Slovenian (and also European) hop regions – therefore we had no choice but to brew the best beer.

Just like every successful story, ours started in the garage of today’s Green Gold Brewing. From the very beginning, owner Luka Rojnik strives for beer not only to be a drink but a surplus with amazing superpowers. In our beers, the Slovenian tradition and years of brewing experiences are intertwined by Luka’s accumulation of different acknowl- edges throughout the world.

In the story of Green Gold Brewing, Slovene hop varieties Aurora, Styrian Dragon, Celeia, Bobek, Styrian Wolf and others are playing the main roles. They are so important to us that you will find them in every can, beer tap or barrel that you choose, whether it’s a Pale Ale, IPA, Hoppy Lager or something else.

Draught Very good white head, stable & lacey over hazy yellow-orange beer. Wheat, hops, not very fruity. Again some (light) hopburn. Bananaester, citrus, light lupulin. Wheat and fruit obvious. Sweetness carries on for a long time. Sharpish MF, spritzy; medium bodied and (fruit)slick. OK, but as with the Hopz - the flavours ought to be more outspoken, rather than the burn/saturation onslaught.

Small white head, fully hazy yellow beer. Grapefruit, bit passion fruit, citruspeel, lupulin. Dry hoppy lupulin flavours. Finishes ultra-dry. Medium bodied, absolutely hopoilslick. Medium to good carbonation. Quite good NEIPA.

Draught Huge, dense & fine white head, lacey, over almost clear golden beer. Rather neutral nose, bit malty, rainwater. Huge head seriously hampers nasal perception. Almondy start, immediately followed by sharp hopflavours. Serious hopburn, nettles. Underneath good pale malts. Burning MF, fiery, very spritzy carbonation. The combination of hopburn and the (almost over-)carbonation make it rather difficult to drink. Which is a pity, as the basis seems quite OK.
