COMMERCIAL DESCRIPTION
Ozujsko Pivo, a blond beer, is Croatia’s leading brand, dating from 1893. The selection of hops and barley gives Ozujsko (5.2% ABV) a refreshing taste and fine bitter aroma. It should be served at 3°C with compact foam.

Note: Dropped from 11.5° and 5.2% to 11° and 5.0% in late 2009/early 2010.

ElGaucho (2033) - Minnetonka, Minnesota, USA - SEP 2, 2004
European lager aroma with a crisp finish. Light, clear gold in color with a white head that is mostly diminishing. Body has lots of visible carbonation. Virtually no lace. There is some hop zing evident. Really nice. Good lager flavor. Reminds me a little bit of Grain Belt Premium but with more of a Euro bent. Very quaffable. I am very impressed by the two Croatian beers I’ve had. Thanks to Nathan for lugging them all the way back for me.

sayravai (4654) - Helsinki, FINLAND - AUG 28, 2004
(Bottled, BBE 05/2005) Paleish yellow color with small head. Mild, fruity and grassy-hopped aroma. Slightly sour, dryish, hoppy flavor. Dry, bitter finish. Medium-bodied, medium-carbonated, dry palate. A very refreshing and pleasant, dry and sourish pilsener.

Golden with a white head. Nice flowery flavor. There is not much aftertaste. There is a touch of malt and hops in the taste.This is a good Croatian beer.

waveman352 (178) - Glens Falls, New York, USA - AUG 18, 2004
Not mgreat but better than I expected from A Croatian beer. A golden yellow pour with no head. A fairly standard taste with no signs of hops at all.

Gazza (726) - Worcester, Worcestershire, ENGLAND - APR 16, 2004
Pale brew, some slight lemony hop in the aroma and flavour, rather unexciting but a fairly drinkable and inoffensive beer all the same with the saving grace of those citrussy hops. (Bottle at Bar Grgec, Kotoriba)

rlgk (7440) - Skövde, SWEDEN - JAN 27, 2004
Golden, white head. Aroma is great from flowers, sweet but balanced. Flavor brings flowers too, with some hops and malts. A great surprise, and a very good lager.

Geiserich (2559) - Vienna, AUSTRIA - JAN 19, 2004
Clear golden color, small head. Flowerly aroma, taste is hoppy a little bit malty, light bitter aftertaste. Good, but really good for a beer from the balkan.

y0cola (361) - fremont, California, USA - SEP 28, 2003
UPDATED: APR 3, 2004 2nd best beer in croatia, but does have a nice flavor to go along with the medium disappearing white head.
