Description
Noctua, named after the owl which is the symbol of Athens, was founded in 2016 by four friends. From the first moment we envisioned Noctua there was no discussion about where our brewery would be located. Of course in the center of our city, in Gazi. A car repair shop was transformed with a lot of work into an urban microbrewery, a reference center for craft beer in Athens that now acquires its own beer.

Bottle, thanks Goran M.! Cola body, tan head, medium retention. Soft malty aroma, roast, the hop is gone... shame. Clean taste.. roasty notes, caramel, sweetish maltiness. Liiight herbal bitterness. Shame it's this old, even without hoppiness it shows promise and I hope I get to rerate it.

330ml bottle bought at Machu Picchu Bar & Deli. A bright golden body under a loose white head leaving spotty lacing on the glassware. Herbal hops and pale malts on the nose. The taste profile is dominated by ripe citrus hops followed by a moderate dry bitter ending. Rather soft in the mouth. Decent. (Hotel room, Rethymnon 14.06.2017).

bottle at charlies, rethymnon, pitch dark, brown head.aroma is roasted malts an d coffee, strong and potent aroma, more roasted malts than some porters and stouts. good stuff. flavor is first of all a lot of very flowery and very intense hops, pine and flowers, where the stout is strong in the aroma, the ipa part is much more clear in the flavor.also roasted malts, mild notes of coffee. the roasted malts bitterness and hops bitterness play well together. great stuff.
