Description
Mlinarica is known for its homely atmosphere. Tables and benches made of solid wood fill the interior of the space, and in the glass part of the pub there is a large fireplace. Every day we offer many homemade dishes, snacks, grilled dishes and homemade desserts, on weekends different baking.

In 2016, next to the brewery, we open a craft brewery and join the Zagreb beer revolution, offering guests top craft beers of different flavors and aromas.

Bottle at Valhalla with Stanislav I guess. Hazy yellow body, white head. Floral, citric, bit funky aroma. Lean, dry, chalky, citric, honeyish, smooth. Lean, dry, grainy, bitter herbal taste, bit of resin, slightly astringent. I mean, okay, but the lost of hops vs. the hop profile... not sure they were in the best shape and form... Will try to rerate on tap.
