Description
Pioneers of craft brewing in Croatia! Like Americas breweries, we started craft beer revolution in Croatia, because we want to refresh beer offer in Croatian market. Currently, customers can only buy boring domestic Euro lagers - but not for long!!

As awarded homebrewers, we are passionate about our ales, and we would like to give opportunity to Croatian consumers to enjoy in our beers. Making beers because of quality and flavor, and not because of the cash flow :). Our portfolio will be from cask ales to craft kegs!

Let's start together - Croatian craft beer revolution!!!!

Can, thx Hrabren! Hazy ruby body, pinkish tiny off-white head. Creamy, candyish ginger-vanilla aroma, not much cherry really, cough syrup vibes somewhat. Smooth, creamy taste, bit malty, candyish vanilla-ginger-odd fakeish cherry combo. Might be that they are using actual cherries but they are burried. This is impressively like some random cream you find on a cake, one-dimensional as all fucks. Flat, smooth, creamy. It is what it is.

Tap at Goblet. Hazy golden body, off-white thick head. Citric, somewhat herbal and oniony aroma, bit herbal. Juicy, fresh, tangerine, white grape, bit oniony taste, this is excellent fresh like this! Not all recent NR beers were winners, I dare say this one is!
