Description
Bevog microbrewery is the fruit of inquisitiveness and aspiration towards discovering new beer-drinking experiences; it is the result of enthusiasm, love and zeal. We brew beers with character and soul. Our goal is to transcend the limits of the known and ordinary.We have had enough of a monotonous beer offer and the belittling of beer. Beer can be and is much more than that. Bevog brewery is dedicated primarily to beers of top fermentation, more commonly known as ales. The ales we brew basically originate from England. In the last few decades this highly diverse type of beer has been given greater breadth, a wider range of flavors, has been shifting the boundaries of individual styles and becoming more and more popular around the world. It is gaining popularity not only with beer lovers and beer drinkers, but in general with gourmets, top chefs and people who are always willing to explore new flavours and experiences and who care about what they ingest.
Despite the English roots of ales, we here at Bevog are very creative and do not stick to the established norms. We design our beers in our own way, the way we know is right. We choose a beer style, take it apart, add a broad spectrum of gained knowledge, ideas and views, put it back together and polish it into our own beer, which is not rigidly cemented in the prescribed frames of an individual style. When creating recipes, we strive towards perfection and above all refuse all compromise, which is otherwise sadly in abundance in modern mass production.
All of the above has been confirmed by the received awards and prizes, and above all by the many super pleased drinkers of our beer.
Cheers!

I always love to taste beer that comes with an interesting label. Pours with a deep black color and a medium cream colored head that quickly settles to only a lacing around the brim. There is a slight alcohol smell which is followed by roasted malts, although very gentle. The taste is bitter, but not too much, along with a nice roasty taste, although the whole combo is quite mild. It’s very creamy and filling. A very nice try from Bevog.

Pours with a slighty hazy coppery color and about two fingers of a solid head. The aroma of citrusy hops is gentle but very pleasant. The taste starts on the easy side with bitterness kicking in moments later. Although a bit more hoppy than I’m used, it’s still very drinkable and all in all a very nice beer.

Bottle from Brot & Spiele, Graz. Amber clear body, with big, frothy, really stable, white head, that leaves a good lacing. Strong litchi aroma, that I didn’t smell that intense in an IPA before, also grapefruit, orange, honey and some grass. Taste is more citric, with grapefruit, orange, also mango and other tropical fruits, grass, sweet malt backbone. Mouthfeel is medium, with a good carbonation and a moderate bitter and slightly dry finish, with long-lasting, complex fruit notes. Overall crisp, greatly balanced and with a wonderful fruit profile, it reaches the smoothness and complexity of a US west coast IPA and adds a unique character, so it can be called a top class IPA that almost is unrivaled in Austria! It has to be said: This new, only one year old brewery, with know-how originated in Slovenia, is the best that could have happened to the Austrian craft beer scene!

330ml bottle. Pitch black colour with huge, frothy, fairly lasting, moderately lacing, brown (really brown) head. Smoky aroma, hints of ham, smoked eel etc., ashes, subtle sweetness, resinous woody notes. Taste is smoky, dry, roasty dark malty, hints of ashes and very dark chocolate; not full-bodied in the strictest sense, somehow slightly straitened and one-sided. Nevertheless really good stuff.

This is definitely better fresh, when it’s more varied. The two years old bottle is much more dominated by the smoke, especially in the finish. But this was just an experiment and the beer shouldn’t be judged on a bottle about 1.5 years past the bb date. So overall a characterful Smoked Porter, with really interesting notes from both parts, the Porter and the smoke.

Es ist ein fein ausbalanciertes Pale Ale mit ordentlich grasigen und bitter-fruchtigen Aromen, ohne zu bitter zu sein -so soll es sein. Deutlich von einem IPA hebt es sich deutlich ab. Kann man sehr empfehlen.

Endlich mal ein gutes Rauchbier. Eines, das nicht nach Geselchtem (geräuchertem Speck) riecht und schmeckt. Die Raucharomen sind schön eingebaut unt stören die leichten Bitterschokolade-Aromen nicht. So erhält man ein ausgewogenes Porter mit Rauchcharakter, das rundum passt.

Mir hat das Tak Pale Ale besser geschmeckt als das Kramah IPA. Das IPA ist relativ mild und hat angenehme grasige frische Hopfenaromen. Geschmäcker nach Harz, Baumrinde und Zitrone und Mandarine mag ich erkennen oder mir auch nur einbilden. EIn tolles Bier, das man mit dem Tak noch toppt.

Dieses Bier ist auch zu einem Klassiker der österreichischen Craftbier-Szene geworden. Das eigentlich slowenische Bier, das aber (noch) in Bad Radkersburg gebraut wird, ist ein cremiges Stout mit fein malzigen Aromen. Röstaromen gepaart mit einer Schokoladigkeit runden es wunderbar ab. Sehr empfehlenswert.
