Pivara Tuzla

 

 

this is easily the worst beer ive had in bosnia, and mavbe one of the worst of all time. purchased a half litre can at a bus stop in konjic after a day of rafting. even a warm bud would have hit the spot for me then, so to hate this is really saying something. its got a metallic taste and smell that just stays in the mouth for ages. its got a watery wheat malt flavor and some acidity from an unknown source. when the carbonation dies as it warms up it becomes positively foul. even ice cold this had a burning sort of quality to it that turned the stomach all kinds of ways. reasonable carbonation and a light body make it just just passable. i wanted to like this, but it is not redeemable. hopefully the good people of tuzla can source some sarajevsko up there, because this is a miserable beer that made me feel like crap for the next couple hours. id still take it over a budlight, but more on principal than quality. yikes

A: Pours a thin, white head which dissipates rapidly and is rejuvinated reciprocally with a constant stream of bubbles. Exellent clarity.

S: Sweet grain with a hint of skunking, rainier cherries in there too.

T: Grain, earth, corn. Pretty standard pils profile. nothing notable here. Finish dissipates with two breathes.

M: Light body. Almost champagne style carbonation (a little too bubbly for a lager pils).

D: Okay beer, would rather have a zatec in the same category of beer.
