0.5 l bottle shared with Mausica, little Dina and prof. Prezbelewsky. Clear amber, small off-white head. Aroma is cardboard, toasty malts, earthy hops. Malty, bready, toasty and spicy herbal flavour. Minimal caramely sweetness. Quite bitter, light body, moderate carbonation, smooth dry finish.

330ml can. Pours dark brown with well formed beige head. Aroma of chocolate and dusty hops. Taste has a nice balance. Light roasted character with chocolate, biscuit, brown sugar and light spiced hop. Medium bodied, fine carbonation. Good example of the style.

Bottle, 0.5l. Amber pour, two finger creamy off-white head, medium retention, sticky lacing on the glass. Malty and bready nose, light hoppy notes in the background. Quite mild overall.

Medium body, soft carbonation. Smooth mouthfeel and texture, soft, silky, easily drinkable. Nicely balanced bittersweet taste. Aroma of toasted caramel, rye bread, grassy hops. Herbal, light citrus peel, spice. Nice hoppy background. Short to medium lasting finish, slightly dry, mild bitterness.

Enjoyable.

0.5l bottle at Pivska Školica 2025. Clear amber body, no head in my pour, some off-white traces in some others, eeeh. Malty, aroma, mostly caramelly, lightly oily and yeasty, huuh. Less clean than expected. Lean, dry, caramelly taste, almost no hops - just vague herbal touches, some yeasty touches by the finish. I mean, shows promise, but it's quite flat, limp, which is kinda surprising. Generally close to style, but less hoppy than this should be, and the malt showcase is kinda crippled by the carbonation.

Bottle shared at work. Pale golden pour with a white head. Nose is citric, slightly floral hops, some sweetness too. Taste is just a tad sweet, it’s moderately bitter, and shows floral, somewhat fruity hops. Closes with a dryish finish, it’s got a body as light as one would expect from the ABV and average carbonation. Pretty pleasant session lager, but a full glass (or keg) of it should’ve been a lot more appropriate than just a taster haha.

Bottle shared at work. Citric, grassy and somewhat earthy hops lead the way with some light malt sweetness in the background. Crisp, lager-like despite being decisively hoppy. Well made.

Bottle shared at work. Light caramel, toasted malts, dried fruits, biscuits and a hint of hops characterise both the arom and taste. Medium bodied with soft carbo.
