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.

Pours a very hazy fiery orange, topped with a medium sized white creamy head. Intense hoppy aroma with grassy notes, lemon grass and some dish cleaning product. Medium bodied with moderate bitterness and too intense soury notes. Not unpleasant, but not the best one.

Draft @ Pivo & Burger Fest Oct’16, Ljubljana. Dorée, léger orange, col blanc. Arôme au nez encore une fois ’off’, laissant passer des notes de surfermentation au niveau de la levure,c e qui a pour effet de réduire le caractère et les effluves des houblons. Retrouve un léger côté fruité tropical mais aussi un nez d’écorce de maïs. Palais est malté pils cara petite note surette niveau levure avec encore cet effet de plastique qui enlève le caractère des houblons et du malt.

Draft @ Pivo & Burger Fest Oct’16, Ljubljana. Dorée, léger trouble, col blanc. Nez un peu tropical fruité, herbacé avec une mauvaise touche de diacetyl donnant un rétro virant sur le beurre. Palais est malté, avec un diacetyl léger mais assez que pour vraiment dénaturer le côté houblonné censé briller ici. Retrouve un fini de plastique et impression de mauvaise fermentation.

Pours a very hazy orange, topped with medium sized white creamy head, fair retention. Unusual citrusy aroma, a bit funky with windw clear notes - must be the home grown hop mix. Not unpleasant, just unusual. Medium hoppy bitterness, a bit citric and bittery aftertaste with some lemon candy feel, likeable taste. Medium body, A bite more IPA than lager feel, but decent.

Pours a hazy coppery-amber color, topped with a medium sized and medium lasting off-white head. Caramel malt and biscuits in the aroma, some chewing gume and resin later on. Solid hoppy bitterness from the start to finish, herbal aftertaste, lasting and pretty prominent. Creamy and very full bodied. Like it.

Brand new stuff. Pours a very hazy and a tad darker shade of amber, topped with a minimal white creamy head. Quite intense hoppy aroma, lots of bubble gum and candy with milder melon feel. Mild caramel and cereal malt backbone. Gentley sweet start, covered by modrate hoppy bitterness with herbal character. Finishes slightly peppery with a gentler afetratse. Surprisingly full body. Nicely balanced wit ha tad english character. A step away from all the modern IPAs here.
