Shared bottle at RB/HB at ABE´s 07.11.15. Muddy chestnut. Diminishing dark beige head. A bit earthy aroma of citrus, American hops and malt. Taste of medium dark malt, grapefruit and pine. American hops lingering on in aftertaste.

0,33 flaske på RBHD-samling hos Asle Bjørn: takk til Ovesen for nytt land! Lett uklar brunlig kobberfarge med fint skum. Citrus, granskudd og tropiske frukter i aroma og smak. En kompetent og fyldig ipa med god maltkropp, fin karbonering og avrundet ettersmak.

Shared 330 ml bottle at local tasting. Dark orange to brown colour, off-white head. Fairly nice hoppy aroma, hints of pine and grapefruit. Resin and hints of grapefruit in the flavour too, not bad at all. Has still a way to go to compete with the best American IPAs.

Dec ’14. A 0.33 l bottle courtesy of Marko, great thanks for sharing this utterly interesting beer! It poured clear brown body with medium sized head. Aroma was roasted malty, of course, but with a bit of peat, although not nearly as much as one would expect for the "smoked porter". Flavor was lightly of each bitter, sweet and acidic. Acidity manifested mostly as that peat, actually just added to smoked feeling, besides regular coffee/licorice/chocolate malt. Medium body. No notes on the finish. I got tired of writing so many rates that evening so didn’t pay full attention it deserves. Summary: Not smoked as expected, not even something excellent, but hats down to the craft pioneers of Kosovo! Keep it rolling!

330ml bottle at home, as Sabaja Smoked Porter, thanks to skullgeorge. Dark brown almost black color with nice beige brown head. Roasted malty aroma, lot of smoked notes especially in the beginning,coffee, licorice, light chocolate, caramel, dark fruits, some hoppy notes. Sweet and bitter taste like aroma, th hoppy notes are more intense here. Light to medium almost oily body with soft to average carbonation.

Bottle at home I was going to save to share for country tickers but I had nothing else cold. Deep brown pour small head. Nose is cocoa and some citrus hops. Tastes if coffee cake, cocoa powder, lime, licorice touch oxidized. Watery palate.

OK IPA. Nije nešto prefenomenalno, ali prođe. Fali joj malo više arome i gorčine. Prije bi ovo svrstao u Pale Ale.
