Bottle (originally from Ambasada) at The Garden brewery, while we were edumacating the new generation of Zagreb beer judges (and people who just want to know more), it was the sample witbier for them to rate. Slightly hazy golden body, off-white head. Citric, floral aroma, mild phenols. Creamy taste, lightly floral, mildly citric, sweetish, rather than dry, but not overly so. Light minerally-earthy touches in the finish kinda messing it up, but it's quite decent overall!
