evilempire (114), sheffield, South Yorkshire, England Mar 5, 2008 draught at the pub. the best of the three offerings that day. dark brown, slight haze. bit overcaramel and under-roast, but still smooth and easy to drink. slight hoppy aftertaste, not overpowering
heavy (503), Split, Croatia Oct 29, 2007 26/10 0.5 l draught. Murky brown bodied with medium brownish head. Sourish unpasteurized nose very similar to Zlatno pivo, with some slight hops and maybe caramel malts. Flavor is quite light again, just a bit bitter and sourish a bit. With fuller body than their pilsener, this is still light for the style. Finish was quite dry to me, short. Doggythedog said I’m too drunk so I tried it tomorrow, still the same, well might have not been in perfect condition those days, but I still pretty much like it as it is definitely good home made beer. Rastacouere (5409), Montréal, Quebec, Canada Aug 11, 2007 Dark mahogany, light 1cm beige head. Sugary, hesitant nose where the malts are in the showcase. Restricted roastiness is dominated by anise, red licorice and candied weird herbal flavours that could remind of a sugared up espresso. Quite sticky with the lack of any bitterness. ogivlado (2399), Zagreb, Croatia Apr 5, 2006 Draught at the brewpub, -deep reddish brown coloured, little beige head, light roasted malt and slight coffee aroma but also quite watery Doggythedog (1020), Split, Croatia Mar 30, 2006 This poured a very dark red tinged colour, with a small light tan head that went at a medium pace. A very subdued aroma, maybe malty. Light, pleasant taste, raisins, caramel, coffe. Sweet. A weak bitter aftertaste. After trying Zlatno pivo, I’ve had high hopes for this. It didn’t reach them, but it’s a nice and pleasant beer.
