Can picked up from Beyond Beer webshop Hamburg and consumed sat outside Frank at Camp Riviera Makarska Friday 5th September 2025 after another walk from the campsite into Makarska. Pours light/mid amber, clear as a bell, with a slim filmy white head, nice soft mouthfeel, light pine, it's definitely there but subtle, do I get grapefruit, maybe a little, maltiness is there and a pleasant if understated m bitterness. Good beer, not amazing but very solid.

Bottle from supermarket, had this back at Frank, Friday 5th September 2025 after another walk from Camp Riviera Makarska into Makarska. Pours yellow with a haze, large white head. Tropical touches from the off, it's very fruity, light bitterness, hoppy, good bite. For a beer that's not too difficult to buy from a supermarket, this is good.

Can at Pivnica Pivac, Rooster Pub, Makarska, Friday 5th September 2025 after another walk from Camp Riviera Makarska. Pours murky yellow with large white head. Super refreshing and tasty but wow there's an absolute shit ton of hops in here, really hoppy but juicy, fruity and super drinkable, mostly tropical fruit. Love this.

On tap at Hops! Beer & Food Factory, Friday 5th September 2025 after another walk from Camp Riviera Makarska. Pours yellow with a haze, large white head. Nose is a little polite but there's a light fruity edge and perhaps a little wheat. The taste is a bit more on the ball with banana and wheatiness, but best of all it's super refreshing and really hits the spot. Like this, only downside is that I do like a Hefeweisse in a Hefeweisse glass.

We visited here Thursday 4th September 2025 after a drive from Korčula and then the Pelješac peninsula brought us to Makarska earlier this afternoon. We visited Hops! Beer & Food Factory first which is a near neighbour of this bar, both are located along the seafront across from the harbour this place sits at the end of that particular row. Like the aforementioned place this is another fab' spot to rock up, select a beer from the extensive list and just people watch. We chose a Nova Runda APA and a Maskeron APA which at the end as I paid I was informed was a fruited pale ale. The Nova Runda was the better beer but I think Loz was expecting more, I told her then she should have ordered their IPA which was also available in can, btw it's 20% off if you want to take a beer away and the choice is maybe 40-50 from the takeaway list. Service was swift and staff very friendly. There is a very good list of Belgian beers including a decent selection of 750ml bottles, also Orval at €5.40 and De Ranke XX at €5.25 is excellent value, tbf even in Belgium that would be considered a good price for Orval. We liked it here and in Hops, we sat at least an hour it's a nice place. I briefly ventured inside to use their facilities, the bar is off to the left, there's a fridge en route to the toilet. Great spot, big thanks to Marko for the recommendation of this and Hops!

We visited here Thursday 4th September 2025 after a drive from Korčula and then the Pelješac peninsula brought us to Makarska earlier this afternoon. Hops! Beer & Food Factory is along the seafront across from the harbour and also just a few doors along from Pivnica pivac, it's certainly a great place to sit facing seaward and people watching. We chose the West Coast IPA and the Pils and both were very decent with the IPA just winning out. There are about 8-10 of the Makarska brewery beers available here and you can also take them away in cans. This place is also geared up for food and whilst we never ate here, it looked good, with burgers, pizza and pasta dishes available. Staff were quite quick to serve and the prices, we paid €9.20 for two 500ml servings, was very reasonable. Liked it here and will probably return again tomorrow..

Can picked up from Plodine supermarket Orebic, Pelješac peninsula, Croatia. Had this Thursday 4th September 2025 sat outside Frank at Camp Riviera Makarska. Poured a slightly hazy golden colour with a large frothy white head, in fact this is the second of tonight's beers that's a little lively on the pour. Initially a little citrus on the nose but then some cereal and a touch of toffee and caramel. Citrussy in the mouth but with a bit of bitterness, there's a light hoppiness, good bittersweet balance. Nice mouthfeel to this but overall it's struggling to assert itself and is a mid table pale ale that needs a bit more character.

Bottle picked up from Plodine supermarket Orebic, Pelješac peninsula, Croatia. Had this Thursday 4th September 2025 sat outside Frank at Camp Riviera Makarska. Pours hazy gold, very lively, overflowing a little on the pour, light yeasty nose, also some maltiness on the nose, there is a grainyness also it's a little sweetish. Not a bad beer by any stretch but overall fails to create much interest for me.

On tap at Pivnica Pivac/Rooster pub, Makarska, Croatia, it was this weeks guest beer. Had this Thursday 4th September 2025 after a short walk from our campsite on the edge of town. Pours light gold there is a very light haze and a small/mid sized white head. Nice mouthfeel, a little buzzy on the tongue, a touch of sweetshop/confectionery thing going on, there was a bit of butteryness which detracted a little from what might of been a decent easy drinking APA. Just been told the correct name of this as I paid, so it's a fruited pale ale with mango and coconut, not sure I can pick those up, yeah this isn't my thing.

Can at Pivnica Pivac, Makarska, Croatia, Thursday 4th September 2025 after a short walk from our campsite on the edge of town. Pours warm orange, hazy, with a small/mid sized white head. Nice aroma, tropical with a malty background, nice mouthfeel, very soft carbonation. Taste is leaning more towards tropical fruit, but also some overipe stone fruits like peaches. Like this, it takes a little time to assert itself but when it does, it's a pretty good beer.
