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 at Goblet with Hrabren. Murky orange golden body,.no head. Sweet aroma, ginger, lemon, vanilla, cake, mango barely in the background, but I had to seek it out. Dry, lemony and gingery taste. Soft, some of that cakey vanilla mix. Not offensive really, tasty kinda, but missing ginger heat and definitely a bit overpriced.
