Bottle from Žabac, shared with Hrabren. Murky yellow-golden body, off-white head. Actually remarkably good aroma, fresh peach juice mixed with light coconut and some citric, woody undertones. Peach, some coconut and citric notes in the taste as well. Bit leaner and drier in the finish, than expected, but clean and dry enough. Very pleasant, well balanced, actually, potentially the best Varionica regular beer I've had in a while.
