Black colored, medium to small tan creamy head, not too lasting. Aroma is of dark chocolate, strong roasted malt, bit cocoa and some oats. Taste is medium- sweet malt, dark and some milk chocolate, more roast, light burnt notes, dry roasty finish with medium bitterness, decent lasting. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, creamy. (bottle)

Bottle courtesy of Marko and ogivlado in Zagreb-Croatia, many thanks guys. Pours cloudy amber, a bit light. Infinitive off-white foam with much retention. Nose: citric, a bit garlic, resin. Mouth: again garlic, an astringent resinous note, but clean and enjoyable. Definitely a decent APA.

Bottle, 330 ml at Melin, Zagreb. Pours cloudy yellow, almost no head. Yeasty, citrus, zesty, spicy, sourish note. Quite drinkable. Others were complaining about sourness, but I find it refreshing (or they had bad bottles).

So, Varionica’s new stout, yay! :D On tap at K&K Milčec, was one of the first to try it, so it’s cool that I get to rate it first, despite a delay. :D Very, very, very murky extremely dark brown, effectively black normally. Off white head. Subdued aroma, malty, chocolate, maybe some toastiness... smokers prevented me from better analysis I guess. Taste... quite drinkable - very dangerously so for 6.2%, generally well rounded, though it lacks body somewhat. Light roast, very mild cocoa, a touch milky, raisins perhaps, subdued hoppy notes, lasting but weak bitterish roastiness mingling with the hop perhaps in the faftertaste, somewhat dry finish - excessively so. A very well crafted, technically flawless beer that could use some more body and a tad more pronounced taste - but that’s just my opinion, people seemed to love it! It was tweaked to the better apparently, can’t wait to try the next batch! :)

Pitch black colored, medium to small creamy tan head, not too lasting. Aroma is chocolate, roasted coffee, licorice, bit herbal hoppy. Taste is medium sweet chocolate, roasted malt and dark chocolate, some licorice, medium- roasty bitterness, light herbal notes, dryish finish. Medium+ bodied, soft carbonation, creamy. Beefcake of a stout. (on tap, Ro&Do, Zagreb)
