UPDATED: NOV 20, 2009 I’m putting this rating temporarily under this entry before it can be ascertained what exactly changed and if the 4.5% version in 2l bottles warrants a new entry. Poured a full golden body with a big thick white head that went away at a medium pace. Malty, slightly dry, grainy and honeyish aroma. The taste is mild, light maltiness mightling with vegetabley/herbal like hop that doesn’t give out much bitterness. A bit bready. Some sweaty notes. Very very light hoppy aftertaste. Ok, balanced and drinkable but quite unremarkable. 5/2-3/5/2/10-11

0.5l bottle from the Scout Club Irish Pub in Samobor. Medium sized thick white head, dissipates slowly. Well carbonated, pale yellow colour. The aroma is faint, and only malt can be detected. The flavor is lemony, but pleasant, faint bitter aftertaste. Quite drinkable, but not flashy in any way. Again I rated a beer almost exactly like ozujsko, without seeing his rating. Strange...

08/12 0.5 l bottle at Scout Irish Pub in Samobor. Poured golden body with quite small head which went down pretty fast. Aroma is malty, sweet and not really strong. Flavor is quite plain, sweetish reminding mostly to honey, some hops here felt, too. Light bodied. Unfortunately also note of metallicity is felt. Short and quite watery finish, but not so bad. Came with higher expectations to this beer, it is not bad, quite different than others but let’s say it’s boring.

The original beer from the Croatian building site. Many people don’t like it, but I’m a big fan. Old school taste of Zagorje!
