On tap at Sabaja pub in Pristina-Kosovo. Limited batch, brewed again after 2 years from its release. Pours a shiny amber/orange color, infinite off-white foam. Nose: a nutty approach followed by a fresh juicy citrus blast. A bit oniony too. Fresh anyway (served a bit too cold) Mouth: medium-high carbo, balanced bitter after taste, a bit smokey, pretty clean, nutty. Balanced APA in perfect style. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle, 0.33l. Murky amber brown color with thin soapy off-white head and sparkling appearance. Aroma of peach, pineapple, melon and grass. Taste starts with moderate sweet caramel and resinous, following is mild fruity and grassy, mouthfeel is crisp and mild spicy, while finish is moderate bitter. Medium body, oily texture and lively carbonation in palate. Surprisingly good and much better than pale ale...

Gift from cc. Horrible rubber smell. Cloudy liquid. Taste luckily not bad, bit malty flavour with some hops. Decent.

Bottle, 0.33l. Pours cloudy amber brown with large soapy tan-like head and sparkling appearance. Aroma of peach, melon, strawberry, caramel and grass. Taste starts with moderate sweet toasted malt and caramel, following is mild fruity and grassy, while finish is moderate bitter. Light to medium body, slick texture and soft carbonation in palate. Aroma is very promising, while taste doesn’t follow it at all...

So, this was the first commercial ex-Yu saison, and it came from Kosovo. Enormous thanks to luttonm and I’m guessing ippopotamo for this. This waited for ages for heavy to finally get his ass to Zagreb again, so yeah, shared with him and ogivlado. Yay! :D Hazy honeyish amber body with a medium sized head. Aroma... actually still fresh, grainy, malty, appley, fresh fruity aroma really, quite nice. The taste... less so... slightly meaty yeasty taste... which disappears thankfully relatively fast, vaguely vinuous saison yeast note too, slightly soapy. Ok, light drinkable saisonoid, nothing thrilling, nothing offensive, nothing memorable apart from its existence.

0,33 on tap at City Pub in Peje/Pec-Kosovo. Proper glass pairing, very well poured (first outcome thrown). Bravo! Pours unclear orange color, small white head a bit adhesive. Nose: peers, some apples, a bit of sweet apricot jam. Light notes of dyacetil but in an acceptable measure. Mouth: medium carbo, a bit flat but not boring. Some pepper, a bit of caramel. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
