330 ml bottle acquired by Werckmeister for me, thanks!
Dark amber to copper, clear body, with a small, creamy, lacing, yellowish head.
Quite light aroma of citrus, grass, some peach, some herbs.
Taste is also a bit light, with citrus, grass, some pineapple, some herbs, some candy.
Medium, quite creamy mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes bitter, quite dry, grassy, zesty, piney, a bit herbal.
Good. Easy and fresh, but overall too light for my liking. Also too much herbal notes, which I don’t like much in an APA.

Tap at the brewery. No great extravagancy in this beer, just very good execution of a style that is harder to brew than many thinks. High bitterness, but not too much, malt supporting from the background and in your face fruity resiny hops flavours. Easily drinkable and refreshing. Very good.

Tap at brewery. Orange color with medium white head. Tropical fruits, citrus hops, malt in aroma. Taste, solid malty base followed by nice hoppy kick with tropical fruits, citrus, zest, pines. Long hoppy bitter finish. Very good.

Well well well. Probably the most anticipated Croatian beer of 2015 so far. Teasers abounded these last few weeks and we’ve had the honor of trying it before others on the bus to Ljubljana, and then at the Ljubljanski Festival Piva 2015, Golden body with a white head. Lookin’ good! Sweetish aroma, tropical fruit mainly, some grain. More of the same in the taste. A bit on the sweet side, which isn’t my thing, but it wasn’t excessive in my opinion. Good bitterness. Not stellar but a good IPA, which I’ll rerate in a bit more "stable" environment for more details and a better opinion.

330ml bottle, courtesy of ippopotamo36 (thanks Alberto!). Pale golden appearance with a big white head. Aroma is a slightly malty with notes of grapefruit and citrus, pine, light cheesy hop (isovaleric?). Flavour is much better, perfectly balanced, bitter, dry and quite clean. Medium to light body, good carbonation. A good beer!
