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.

Thanks to ciocanelu for this bottle. Sweetish nose, interesting start - sweetish-dry, hints of citrus, fresh, smooth. A bit watery but not bad.

Muffig herber, dann eher honigartig hopfiger Antrunk. Süffiger, wenn auch nicht sonderlich aromatischer Mittelteil, etwas steigende Hefigkeit. Süffiges, gut trinkbares Bier. 11/9/10/9/8/9

Röstig süffiger Beginn mit steigender Bitterkeit. Röstig bleibend, weich, süffig. Dabei werden die Röstnoten zum Ende schwächer, das Bier insgesamt laffer. Minimal metallern. 8/11/11/9/11/11

Bottle at Barley Cargo - Athens. Pours clear yellow with a creamy, white head. The nose holds pale bread, some husky grains and hay. Medium sweet flavor with slight bitter grain husk, honey, tangerine, bread, light grass. Medium bodied with fine to average carbonation. Sweet and bready to finish with furher oightly bitter grains and hay. Simple and sweet but tasty and easygoing.

Bottle from beer-shop.gr, Athens. Dark brown with a tan creamy head. Sweetish with nuts, caramel, some fruit and coffee. Light and a bit boring. The finish was dry.
