Description
Volkan beer is the first Greek beer born in Santorini, inspired and made from the finest local ingredients of the Cycladic islands. Santorini is volcanic and unique. Our spectacular island receives little rainfall, so what grows is intense in flavour and aromas and limited in quantity. In brewing Volkan we bring together, lava rock filtered mineral water and the best of local ingredients; rare Santorini grape honey and ancient citrus medica essence from Naxos.

Bottle from a Thessaloniki supermarket, Greece. Pours a clear mid brown colour with a small off white head. Lovely chocolate malt and coffee aroma is the highlight of this beer. Medium coffee roast bitterness to taste, medium sweetness. Body is light and texture thin which detracted from overall score. Enjoyable but beauty of the aroma not matched overall.

Shared 11.2 oz. bottle. Pours dark amber with a beige head. Fine lacing. Aroma of roasted malts, caramel, and honey. Similar taste, with an added toasted/burnt malt component. A little sweet, with very mild bitterness. Not really picking up on the citric elements. Moderate carbonation and light-bodied. Not bad.

11.2 oz. bottle. Pours a very pale straw, with a slight haze. Super fizzy white head at the outset, which rapidly dissipates to no head at all. No lacing. Low carbonation (almost flat) after the first couple of minutes. Aroma of wheat, malt, and some honey notes. Wheat, malt, honey, faint citrus flavors. Mildly sweet, with some tartness and low bitterness.

Bottle. Dark reddish brown with a white head. Faint aroma of citrus fruits plus dark malts and hints of coffee. Taste is roasted malts, citrus fruits, tea and a little bit of honey. I didn't really detect any wheat. Medium to strong carbonation. Thin mouthfeel. It's ok.
