Thanks to Pornoguru who accidentaly bought an extra and gave it to me! :D So, the concept is cool, named after Slovenian aviation pioneers, the Rusjan brothers, or, perhaps, Edvard Rusjan, the better known of the two. One glance at the hop list and I was excited... so how it fared... Murky, dark amber body, not much of a head. The aroma starts with a blast of diacetyl, mixing with herbal notes. So... basically, it smells like butter and pelinkovac (wormwood liqueur). The taste is actually better, the body is soft, a peachy note breaks through, but it feels slightly too light. No bitterness to boost it really, but some shows up, herbal, in the aftertaste. Another beer bottled at Vizir that I need to try on tap to actually appreciate for what it is. Though, admittedly, I seriously doubt that the diacetyl is due to their bottling line. There’s potential there, but the bottle some of us shared today was an utter mess I’m afraid. I hope for the sake of the Slovenian craft scene that these things get sorted out. :)
