Tap, a bit warmer than preferred. Pours hazy Amber, large creamy beige head, nice lacing. Aroma is pretty basic pine, some bread and caramel. Flavor is light plus sweet, medium bitter, kind of a British styled IPA. Nothing spectacular, but solid in its simplicity.

50cl bottle at Ro&Do pours a mostly clear amber with some rocky, off white head. Nose is cheap, stale bread, under attenuated malt, smells like adjuncts. Flavor is the same, cheap malt, cheap fruit, some rotting plums. Odd finish. Bad.

This was my favorite beer from Medvegrad since 2004., rating it only now. Dark brown with orange tint, off white to tan lasting head. Lagerish aroma, hay and malt, hints of roast in the background. Roasty character, malty, caramel, nuts and some chocolate in the finish. Medium carbonation, medium body. A proper example of style.

Tap at the brewery. Quite good APA, falls short of IPA both in aroma and flavour. Hazy orange colour. Aroma fruity, hoppy, garlicy. Taste is fruity, resiny, garlic, oranges. Good beer, just not your typical IPA.

Tap at Pivnica Medvedgrad Adžijina. Hazy orange color with thick off-white head. Fruity hoppy aroma. Taste, solid malty base followed by light citrus hoppy taste. Light hoppy bitter finish. OK.

On tap at Medvedgrad Adžijina. Pours unclear with creamy off-white head. Caramel malts, dried fruit, quite sweet. Medium to full bodied. After Božićno this is another nice seasonal beer by Medvedgrad.

On tap at Medvedgrad Ilica, Zagreb. Pours black with creamy beige head. Sweet, caramel, dried fruits, smooth carbonation, not easy drinkable. Wasn’t thrilled with their other seasonal brews, but this turned out to be pleasant surprise. Hope they’ll make it this year as well.
