On tap at Hops Beer & Food Factory, Makarska, Croatia, Thursday 4th September 2025 after a short walk from our campsite on the edge of town. Pours gold, good clarity, small/mid sized white head. Light fruitiness and hoppiness is subtle. Style wise this could offer a more crisp bite and perhaps a little more dryness, that said it's not too sweet, it's very drinkable and a decent beer.

Tap at Hops. Misty orange body, fairly white head. Fruity, estery, citric aroma, light cloves. Creamy soft taste, banana, grainy, bubblegum... Lightly too grainy for my tastes, but very tasty. Big props for this!

Tap at Hops! Pitch black body, beige head. Big sweetish vanilla-chocolate aroma, lovely. Lean, soft taste, cocoa & vanilla, grain, dark chocolate and cocoa puffs by the finish, ending dry and a big prickly. Seems sweetish at first, ends prickly, vaguely bitterish. Very good!

Tap at Hops. Misty orange body, off-white head. Citric, tangerine aroma, gummi bears, some herbs in the aroma. Lean, dryish taste, medium body, tropical-peachy and tea notes, before quickly going towards a good bitter-bitterish herbal finish, a bit prickly, bit grainy-oaty by the finish. Good stuff!

On tap at M Brothers Zagreb. Murky orange/golden coloured, medium sized white head, fresh citrusy nose. Malty, citrusy, light tropical fruits and mild herbal with moderate bitter finish. Quite nice and fresh.

Tap at Hops! Makarska. Slightly hazy golden body, off white head. Perfumey aroma, citrus fruits and wild herbs, lean tangerine mostly, pleasant. Lean taste, the leanest and the driest beer I've had from them actually, albeit with a teeny tiny touch of residual sweetness too. Lovely citric profile, gummi bears too, ending in a pleasant herbal bitterness. Actually a very good IPA, having Maskeron around definitely raised the quality of PMP beers I guess!

Tap at the brewery. I was allegedly poured this instead of the APA. Which kinda makes sense looking at the hop profile, but now I'm *angery* for not getting the new APA. Yay. Clear ruby body, off white head. Malt-dominated, heavy maltiness, caramel, crystal malt I guess, some candied orange touches. Tastes a bit tired, sweetish caramel flavor, light raisins, teeny tiny funky touches, some perfumey hoppy presence. Meh. Raised the score a little now that I have found out they apparently poured me the wrong beer, buuuut still not great at this moment.

Tap at the Hops! Makarska. Clear golden body, white head. Flowery-fruity aroma hops in the aroma, simple but on point for the style. The taste is surprisingly full again, sweetish which seems to be a part of the house character, clean maltiness, light flowery and herbal touches, but a bit tired and stale, eh.
