Can. Hazy gold beer, small pale cream colour head. Smooth palate, mildly dry, decent fine carbonation. Smooth light malts, a light creamy sweetness. So finally, Medusa hops! Been looking for these for 2 years. The Neomexicanus multi head wild hop. What do they taste like? Bonkers! Piney coconut pineapple, like a slightly tamed Sabro but a little citrus underneath and some floral fruity goodness that flirts with candy. Soft but punchy tropical fruits, kinda soft peach and guava. Soft floral melon. Soft pine throughout. But these hops have teeth and there is some spicy bitterness on the finish. Not quite as outright insane as Zappa hops then (also Neomexicanus) but very complex, layered and attention grabbing. Hope these can be grown on a larger scale without destroying their wonderful wild character.

Can sourced from Beerdome and shared at home (13/09/2020) - hazy yellow to orange with a white head. Big bold juicy fruity showcasing a stonefruit medley of mango and nectarine, apricot, some pineapple, papaya, white sugar sweetness, soft sweet malts, robust hoppy finish, yet another winner from Slovenia’s finest hop slingers. Gorgeous.

Can. My first time with medusa. Pours a super hazy and cloudy yellow, little head. Aroma is super juicy, coconut, pineapple, peach and orange. Like a better Pina colada! Medium body. Flavour is malty and lightly sweet. Super juicy and fruity, with beautiful pine and herbal hops. Pineapple, coconut and peach, soft orange, grapefruit, lemon, papaya and mango. Wow, what an interesting hops. Super juicy and fruity with loads of pine.

Can, Pivoljub. Pretty hazy orange-yellow, medium small white head, not so lasting. Nice hoppy nose, citruses, melon and coconut in the end. Medium bitterness, a bit sharp in the start, dry in the finish. Lasting aftertaste. Lighter body, no trace of alcohol and a bit cloying. Interesting.

Hazy as hell,murky yellow. Fast diminishing off-white head. Top haziness I've seen. Moderately hoppy aroma, with mango,pineapple also and coconut feeling. Fruity and hop forward taste. Medium bodied, strong enough to fullfill fruity feeling.Nice finish, hidden 8% ABV. Well done!

Hazy as they get, yellow colored, medium white head. Strong and juicy hoppy aroma, tropical, citrus, grapefruit, dank. Taste is medium sweet malt, mostly strong hoppy aroma, medium bitterness, tropical fruits, citrus grapefruit and dank notes, dry finish, some hop burn in the aftertaste. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, oily. Alcohol very well hidden, extremely drinkable for that ABV. Excellent!

On tap at Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb. Stole from little Dina. Afterwards had a fresh one with Maskeron. Murky yellow to golden, small off-white head. Moderately hoppy, fruity, citrusy, lemon, grapefruit zest, melon, tropical, pineapple, elderflower, beetroot, vanilla, green hops. Slightly thin, a good side is alcohol is hidden. Gentle, light finish. Almost no bitterness. Fine grapefruit flavour, with hints of coconut, vanilla and pineapple all along.
