I am trying this beer at a restaurant near St. Marks church in Zagreb, Croatia whilst lunching with my extended family from the old country! It poured a clear golden and had fizzy white head that eventually dissipated. The scent had grain notes. The taste was nicely balanced and easy to drink with wet grain presence. The mouthfeel was lighter in body with good carbonation. Overall it is a great beer!

. 5 L bottle in Plitvice National Park (Croatia). 5% ABV with a 30 January 2020 BB date stamp.
Amber body with high clarity and a tall semi-durable white head. Good lacing.
The aroma is typical for style, if a touch above average quality. The flavor is also a bit better than average for style largely because of the 'extra' bready malts.
Medium body and soft carbonation.

Clear golden pour, small white head, short lived.
Smells better than the average, some nice and bitter hops, faint yellow apple.
Taste starts with sweet malts, again the nice cereal taste like the Tamno Pivo, bit of toastiness, followed fast by dry grassy bitterness until the finish. Some mild fruitiness throughout, faint floral notes too.
Smooth light body, medium carbonation. Aftertaste is mostly bitter.
Nice beer, tho it has some off "homemade" notes.

Pours a completely clear, golden color and is topped with a medium white head. The head soon dissipates.
The aroma is quite strong - there is malty aroma and also some honey can be felt.
The taste is sweet, almost too sweet. There's some honey present. The aftertaste is pleasantly bitter.
Not the best beer, slightly staley, but still drinkable.
