Very fruit-forward, grapefruit, oranges - zesty! Rather dry, pearly bitterness, low ABV doesn't show at all.

On tap at Craft Room Zagreb. Hazy orange/golden coloured, medium sized white to off-white head, light herbal nose. Moderate malty, herbal hoppy, light fruity yeasty and sharp bitter finish and aftertaste. Not so balanced.

On cask at Lajbah, pours a cloudy golden with a small white head. Aroma brings out earthy hops, with a stale cardboard character. Flavour is a bit stale, with cardboard, earthy hops and light biscuity notes. Tastes stale and off-coloured. No good.

On tap at Sir William's Pub, pours a hazy golden with a medium beige head. Aroma brings out citrusy floral hops, with oranges and biscuity malt. Flavour is a bit buttery - yep, there's some diacetyl - with orangey hops and biscuity malt. Buttery and lacking proper calibration. Meh.

Pours with huge head that takes time to separate, Guinness-like if that can be described in such a way. Very dark brown body, nearly black and opaque. Aroma is freshly installed laminated floor tiles on the 38th floor of a new office building in Chicago, Illinois. It settles down a bit and some coffee comes through, like the Starbuck's just across the hall, but the guys are still busy with their chemicals cleaning everything up. The flavour is a sound mix of iced coffee, heavily sugared, and grapefruit with pineapple hints. They are separated well, both identifiable, though I am uncertain if they work in good harmony. They are living a sort of segregated life, a Saudi Arabian-style society for this beer with separate arrangements for all the flavours. The finish is crisp, and oiliness is good though, so there's nice presence here on the tongue. Overall there are some good things happenin' on this one but even better things could be possible.

On tap at Craft Room, Zagreb. Hazy golden, creamy white head. Some moderate hops in aroma, peach, quite smooth. Lasting herbal bitter finish, which doesn't work in a good way and gets a bit unpleasant. Light to medium bodied.

Very hazy golden-yellow, topped with larger and lasting white(ish) head. Nice and gentle citrusy nose with some more noticeable breadiness. Taste moderatley bitter with lots of chalk and herbal character in the finish and later in teh aftertaste. Doesn't work well together.

Fuity orange juice kicks this off, floral aroma with just a hint of cracker. Brown body with slight fog and some head. Flavour is charred orange, some wood. Weak on the mouth and watery. Okay pale ale but needs more presence.
