0.25 l bottle, courtesy of Doggythedog, thanks for bringing it to tasting tonight! Poured deep golden body with tiny head. Strong hoppy and yeasty aroma of orange, a bit sourish with some sweetish malt. Watery, quite empty, but very pleasant malty aroma. Distinct sourness keeps it very special comparing to other beers, yeasty, reminding to orange. Although thin bodied, it had medium long finish. Quite interesting brew, pretty nice.

The flavour has a mild sweetness with malt, some yeast and bit of grains along with a pleasant mild bitterness. Mild frutish malty finish. Thanks Ogi for this seldom bottled beer.

They’ve changed the shape of the label a bit and it now looks a little.... less trashy. Poured a golden colour with a small, thick white head (deja vu :)). The nose is malty, with some hops bursting through from time to time. Some brewpubby yeasty hints too.... nothing tooo special but ok. The taste is... light... watery, very pleasant. Yes, almost exactly like last time only without the diacetyl. The same pleasant light lemony hopiness (Goldings I bet) and a passable malty body...hmm... maaybe, just maybe corn, but I’m definitely far from sure on that one. Some yeastiness. Weak, weak hoppy aftertaste. Overall, it turns out in the end to be a bit too weak and watery. Not sure how filtering could’ve possibly benefited this one. It could definitelly use more body and more hops. It’s very drinkable and far from unpleasant, but it gets boring after 0.5l. So it’d seem that I was a bit off. 2.7-8 fresh.

Old Review
1l green wine(!) bottle courtesy of ozujsko (thanks)
It poured a dark orange colour with a small thick white head that went away fast. The nose was malty, with a noticable presence of butter (diacetyl I guess). It tastes... interesting. A light lemony hoppiness stands on a full malty, yeasty and buttery body. Diacetyl seems to complement the taste, well, nicely. Odd. Very faint hoppy aftertaste. I’m giving it the ratings I think it would get if I tasted it fresh. If I do that, and it doesn’t change, the numbers might resemble ozujsko’s more. (6/3/6/3/12)

sampled draught in Kahli, Kucan Marof, Croatia. -quite ordinary brew pub beer, hoppy and yeasty aroma, fruity with short sweet finish
