Fat på Brewskival 2023. Rostorange i färgen. Påminner väldigt mycket om en iscider eller lite tuffare cider. Väldigt mycket äppeltoner, äppelskal, lite äppelkärnor. Körsbären i bakgrunden. Mycket fat, kanske aningens hög alkoholsmak. Annars bra.

Fat på Brewskival 2023. Blek, halmfärgad med nätt vit krona. Citrus, fin och fräsch honungston, nästan lite fläder. Väldigt lite av både vanilj och laktos, vilket är ett plus. Smakar mer som en lite fräsch och spritsig sessionmjöd. Snygg.

0.5 l bottle shared with Patrick at the Goblet Beer Store, Zagreb. Oily pale golden. Light honey aroma, lighter honey, floral aroma, along with a mango touch. Unfortunately, flavour is mango candy and sweet honey. No trace of pepper which could've balanced it out. Sweet finish. Quite light and drinkable.
