Review: Can of Karlovacko Pivo Beer, 5.2% ABV

My first Croatian beer

The aroma was a good grain scent with some malt sweetness, nice.

A nice thick, foamy, white head appeared after the pour, that stuck around. A bit of lacing noted.

The colour was a bright clear golden straw appearance. Had a bitter taste, and I felt it was a strong beer. No doubt a few of these under my belt and I would be ready for a good party.

A good clean Pale Lager, with a nice decent aroma.
