Beer Tasting - American Pale Ale ('Pale Ale' by Mali Grad Brewery)
One day closer to summer vacation and one more beer review! Hope all is well dear Steemers! Always push to greater heights. We can do it!
This one is another Slovenian girl I picked up on my team building event.
Mali Grad Brewery (‘Small City’ Brewery) exists for three years already. They say they started as beer lovers with a mission to conquer the world! So far so good!
Here are some of their beer reviews in video. Basically a V-log of a taster. In Slovenian, but some cool scenes/music. Browse if you have the time!
I want to say one more time that this was one of the most idyllic tastings ever. Sitting next to a lake and enjoying fresh smells and beautiful nature! Amazing! I’ll be back to this bar.
One tip that I always like to emphasize is to have a snack ready if you do more than one tasting. It washes out the aromas and you can start (almost) fresh.
Though, If you have more than 5 beers in a row, it won’t really help you :)
I’ve just found a great quote by old Abe!
“I am a firm believer in the people. If given the truth, they can be depended upon to meet any national crisis. The great point is to bring them the real facts, and beer.”

Pale Ale by Mali Grad Brewery
| Style | American Pale Ale |
| Country | Kamnik, Slovenia |
| Alcohol | 4.9% |
| ----- | --------- |
| Appearance | very rocky head! Terrific and tasty! Light orange. Clear. Similar label to Session but simpler. |
| Aroma | Hops, smells bitter. I expect bitter. Plenty of herbal notes. A bit of dry ham. |
| Taste | Light bitterness. Light sweetness. Pervading, easygoing taste. Sheer bliss. Love the aftertaste. I just nailed it with this brewery. |
| Palate | Decidingly watery feel. Low to medium carbonation. Nothing fancy and it works. |
| ----- | --------- |
| Overall | I don’t give a fuck beer. Great for chilling. One of my new favorite breweries! |
| Score (subjective, personal) | 18/20 |
Price: 3.60 euro (4.10$) for 0.5l. Bottle at a pub. Mid-range I’d say.

Yet another great post mate. I love reading them. The review and the pics are always so well done!
I have a wedding on my to do list this weekend.
I'll try to read your recent posts during boring parts ;)
Haha, they will lynch you if you get caught!
I'm a big fan of pale ales. My long time fav is Bass, but I can't find it locally (Oregon) so gave up. However, today my neighbor heard me complaining about the can of Swill I was about to crack, and turned me on to a bottle of a local breweries (award winning Pelican Pub, in Pacific City, Oregon) IPA, which I am about to savor.
One of the things I loved about the Bass Pale Ale was that it wasn't overpowered by hops, which I find detracts from the overall flavor of a beer. I haven't yet found another so mild mannered, but here's hoping!
Kinda sad I'll never get a shot at any Slovenian product. I was fortunate enough to spend a year in Europe as a child - and despite being only 12 at the time, devoted practically all my disposable income (ha!) to wine and beer.
The wealth of Belgian beers makes that a destination of choice should I ever have again a chance to travel.
Enjoy!
Loved the Lincoln quote. Particularly how he just added 'beer', out of the blue.
This?
Swill seems tasty!
Hehe, all the income? We'd get along just fine! Join steempub channel in chat!
Yeah, I was surprised too how he just improvised! That man was a genious!
Yep, that's Bass! Man, I miss it...
I actually had no idea Swill was a thing. Dreams dashed again =/
Ty for inv!
@buzzbeergeek Thanks for sharing your hoppy exploits with us...I live in an area where the most unique beer is Heineken...which makes me sad. But posts like yours make feel whole again :) Lol
