A thick, jet black pour that glistened like wet leather left a body, utterly black, with not so much as a hue of brown in the light. A small, mocha coloured head of bubbles arrived at the beginning but didn't hang around. The immediate scent on the nose is coffee, dry spent espresso specifically. It took a little more investigating but a little milk chocolate and milky creamy caramel can be found in the mix. Further digging and a salty cracker/biscuit can be found, although it was quite faint and I can't rule out some sort of Mandela effect. The beer is medium bodied, leaning into heavy territory, with moderate carbonation and a soft foam ads some extra depth. The taste juggles all the profiles vedy well, it starts with the milk chocolate and the salted caramel which merges with the slated biscuit. The 8.4% makes itself known as the wave kicks in and spikes the taste buds before settling down and making way for faint vanilla and the final note of spent espresso, carrying into the aftertaste. A great imperial milk stout which executes the advertised flavours without making them excessive or sickly sweet.

Tama from The Garden Brewery arrives like a hazy, sun-drenched memory of an Adriatic summer, a Pale Ale whose soft, golden liquid holds its soul in the gentle, swaying rhythms of the Croatian coast. Bring the can to the table in the heat of the afternoon and it breathes out a bright, orchard-fresh song of stone fruit, a sweet citrus hum of orange zest, and a drift of wild, floral meadow notes dancing in the breeze. The first swallow is a soothing balm to the senses—utterly pillowy, vibrant, and effortlessly refreshing—as the soft oat-forward body lets the aromatic, sun-kissed hops bloom and wash over the palate like a warm tide against the shoreline. Deceptively balanced and vibrant, this gentle, sunlight-catching spark of an ale is a crisp, easygoing joy in a glass, a beautifully quiet thing brewed for those who choose to slow the hours down and linger in the golden glow of a long, lazy day.

It pours black in colour with a beige coloured head. Aroma is sweet with caramel. Flavour is sweet with caramel and hints of chocolate.

🇭🇷🇭🇷 c'est crémeux, c'est sucré et torréfié, on sent bien le chocolat et le caramel. C'est pas mal mais un peu écœurant

Sweet with chocolate and caramel flavours. Faint whiff of coffee but nothing discerning. Rich with dark chocolate bitterness to finish. Thin.

A thick, sweet followed by strong taste stout. Nice but one is plenty!
