330ml Bottle (Projekt, Ljubljana) - Copper coloured. The aroma is slightly biscuity but also tart. The taste is pretty much the same and I suspect this is infected.

0.33l bottle from :PROJEKT from Hrabren and Ogi. Why are they selling beer, let alone NEIPAs that expired 3.5 months ago? A NEIPA brewed 10 months ago (November 7th 2024)? Dunno - but Ogi's rating it now, we probably paid full price, and Ogi doesn't rerate, I might... a blemish on an otherwise excellent place. Anyway. Hazy yellow body, off-white head. Citric, herbal sharp aroma, light oxidation, minerally, sweetish, leaning on phenolic spicy notes. Tart taste, citric, lemony even, some spicy phenolic touches, low tropical notes, orange candy. I mean, I'm sure this was a good beer when fresh, could believe it was excellent. But damn...

Bottle from :PROJEKT with Hrabren and Ogi. 5 months old today, 1 to go... eh, wish they had some fresher examples. Hazy orange-golden body, off-white, thick, relatively lasting head. Fair bit of floaties in others' glasses. BIg stone fruit, lychee, citrus fruit and light chamomile tea. Lean, dry taste, vaguely fruity, peachy, bit minerally. Pleasantly dry, but empty and clearly not the freshest.

Bottle from :PROJEKT with Hrabren and Ogi, guess from May 14th, yay. Hazy dull golden-orange body, off-white head, gone soon. Enormous buttery aroma, huge candy fruity aroma, some vegetal touches. The taste combines smooth fruity notes, bit stale/creamy, and enormous veggies... Sadly, this is dead, might rerate fresh, the recipe is probably good, but this, well within the BB date, really isn't that much.

0.33 l bottle shared with Marko and Ogi. Hazy orange, small off-white head. Aroma is butter, peach, orange and candy. Flavour is malts, peach, mango, banana and butter. Light body, moderate carbonation, thin, dry, moderate bitterness. Unfortunately off, but if there was no diacetyl, it would be a nice one.
