Description
Zmajska pivovara rodila se iz strasti prema vrhunskom pivu i iz dugogodišnjega iskustva u kućnom pivarstvu. Željeli smo napraviti razliku s inovativnim i drugačijim pivima kakva donedavno nisu bila dostupna u lokalnoj ponudi. Svako naše pivo, bez obzira na stil kojemu pripada, iskreno je, prepoznatljivo i beskompromisno u kvaliteti.

Kao prva nezavisna pivovara u Hrvatskoj i jedni od začetnika naše craft scene, smatramo da naša odgovornost ne staje na proizvodnji i isporuci piva.
Želimo svim pivoljupcima objasniti magiju nastajanja piva, važnost kvalitete sastojaka i približiti bezbrojne kombinacije okusa i aroma. Nadamo se da naša Zmajska posla i uspijevaju u tome, a svaki HomeBrew Lab koji organiziramo ponudi nam paletu jako dobrih uradaka. Craft je za nas prijateljstvo i način života. I još puno toga... za što teško nalazimo riječi. Ali pokušavamo to preciznije izraziti našim festivalom craft piva i muzike Zmajevo.

Can, 0.5l. Hazy copper pour, two finger frothy off-white head, long lasting, very good retention, sticky lacing on the glass. Nice on the nose, herbal and grassy notes, citrus peel, light pine.

Medium body, medium carbonation, lively. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, chewy, fizzy, refreshing. Bitter taste balanced with mild sweetness in the background. Aroma of herbs, grass, caramel malt, candy. Tropical fruits, citrus peel, pine. Light spice, floral. Honey notes in the aftertaste. Long lasting finish, slightly dry, lingering herbal bitterness.

Pretty good.

0, 5 l on tap at Zmajska Pivovara Taproom. Pours almost dark brown with typical nitro head with reasonable retention. Aroma of cocoa, licorice, roasted malt, some caramel. Taste is low sweet and medium bitter. Body is quite light. Finish packs a nice bitter kick. A bit watery, but it has a nice character and is well executed, as expected from Zmajska Pivovara.

0,5 l on tap a Zmajska Pivovara taproom. Pours hazy deep pinky with small, quickly dissipating light pinky head. Aroma of raspberries, sour. Taste is light sour and minimal bitter. Finish is short. Nothing exciting, straight forward and on the boring side.

Canned 500ml. -at Ambasada Zagreb. Pitch black coloured, medium sized brown head that went away fast, dark chocolate and strong cocoa in the nose. Same in the taste with notes of chocolate mousse and hidden alcohol. Enjoyable.

Tap at Barbeerian. Hazy dark yellow body, off-white, thick head. Interesting smooth, full stone fruit aroma, peach gusti sok (erm, unfiltered juice? XD), light coffee vibes (?!), digging it! Melon, peach, light citric touches, low low bitterness, some vague hop burn, bit soapy... Juicy enough but quite uneven taste-wise.
