Description
Simply to say, craft beer is a beer that is not brewed by one of those large “mega-breweries.” It is crafted—not manufactured—by the brew master, for whom combining hops, malt, yeast and water is a form of art. Craft beer is not merely a fermented beverage. Its recipe combines carefully crafted aroma, texture, and appearance, while preserved natural ingredients, which are almost completely destroyed with pasteurization applied in all mega breweries, build the taste—the most important component of the crafting process.
Everything we do, we believe in respecting tradition, blazing new trails, and fueling curiosity. We do this by brewing great beer.
We demonstrate our respect for tradition by diligently brewing the finest examples of classic beer styles, and yet, continue to gaze into the future—experimenting with innovative tastes that can highlight our unique climate and culture. Cultivating curiosity among beer lovers inspires participation, learning, and constant yearning for finding something new.

450ml bottle from Total Wine. Pours a crystal clear gold color with a white head and good retention. A few spots of lacing. Basic Euro lager aroma with a little sulfur. Good bready lager flavor with less sulfur notes than the aroma. Medium-light body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. Better than I expected.

Bottle on the mountain in Gudauri.
So good to taste some hops again. This was rather lively with good fruity hops balanced quite well. Tad astringent in the end.
