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 at home. Pours a clear dark brown colour with small light beige head. Nice roasted aroma with coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa and dark wood. Pretty sweet flavour but still some roasted malt. Some rye bread. Light and sliky mouth feel, and has a light bitterness. Nice aroma but the flavour didn�t follow up.

Jeg ante ikke at der er et bryggeri på vakre Santorini før jeg fikk denne flasken av Odd Gunnar. Flott skum legger seg dannet ned til gardinfilm. Den bebudede aroma og smak av "exotic hops, fragrant Santorini honey and citrus medica" strever jeg med å finne, men det er allikevel et helt drikkbart øl både mht munnfylde, smak og ettersmak. Dog uten noe hveteølpreg som "black wheat Greek lager" hinter til.
