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 @ The Unholy Trinity Meets Again, Sønderborg. Pours hazy coffee brown with airy off-white head. Sourish aroma with notes of yeast, and grainy and malty touches. Sourish flavour with sweetish notes of caramel malt and hoppy touches. Hints of fruit. Sourish aftertaste. Tastes off despite not being in the vicinity of the BBD. Disappointing.
