Panda thanks to Cloin. Big thanks for hauling this back from Greece land. A hazy and dirty looking dark gold beer, bubbly pale cream colour head. Palate is light and mildly dry, a good fine minerally crisp snap. Airy but quite sweet pale malts, a kinda floral sweetness. Crisp pine into a fairly ripe citrus. A semi dry and crisp finish. Decent affair but could do with some tweaking.

Bottle in the hotel on Aegina, picked up from Barley Cargo, Athens, 12/10/24. Hazed orange topped with a lasting just off white head. Nose is freshly squeezed grapefruit, blood orange, citric tinged straw, pine needle, melon. Taste comprises pineapple, grapefruit, pine resin, bitter orange, grass, airy malts, lychee. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close spliced with juicy come resinous and just a touch of Kiwi hop. Decent enough easy drinking DIPA.

Bottle in the hotel, picked up from Pantopolion grocery store, 11/10/24. Clear golden blonde topped with a lasting white head. Nose is straw, herb, faint soap, grains, stale bread. Taste comprises pale and bready malts, biscuit crumbs, herb, hedgerow. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close So so ... a little on the dull side and lacking refreshment value.

33cl Fles van de lokale supermarkt in Ermoupolis. Mistig gouden kleur, witte kraag. Zurige geur, limoen, tikje homebrew, gist, licht moutig, hint van toast, friszure smaak maar of het bewust is… limoen, weinig bitter. Rommelig brouwsel, maar best verfrissend.

330 ml bottle from Santorini, Greece. Thanks Kat! Pour a mostly clear pale yellow color with a bright white head and great retention. Light spotty lacing. Strong sulfur aroma. The flavor is a mix of more sulfur and tangy malts and a hint of yeast. 0 for 3. Not a fan. Medium body. Medium carbonation. Not bitter. Not so good.

330 ml bottle from Santorini, Greece. Thanks Kat! Pour a cloudy yellow color with a white head and great retention. A few spots of lacing. Hops-forward aroma with some juicy notes. The taste follows the nose: Mostly hops flavor with juicy grapefruit bitterness in the finish. Pretty true to the style. Medium body, medium carbonation, and medium bitterness too. The 6.5% ABV is invisible.
