Beer Tasting - Premium Lager ('Križevačko Svijetlo' by Križevci Brewery)
Feeling under the weather the morning after? I sometimes do. Steemit always helps but a short walk and a small crisp lager really boost my spirits!
We are talking about alcohol, just to make it clear. That dreaded Sunday blues after a rowdy Saturday.
There is no need for drinkers guilt. Indulge yourself! Go for a walk!
Some would choose a park or a meadow - I go to Opatovina. The celebrated beer street in Central Zagreb.
A few house specials that Sunday. Better than languishing in your predicament!
They have a terrace on top with a spectacular view of the city. Some ruins and a beer graffiti! Guess the Brewery which produces this beer and you get 1 SBD - Croatians are denied entry for obvious reasons :) Hint: I reviewed it.
Nice breeze, kind staff and an ever changing craft beer menu.
When I lack inspiration I go for Križevačko lager. It found a niche spot between macro brews and slightly over-priced craft beer. Right down the middle of quality and the price.
It has a dark brother. Find more about it and about Craft Room here. One of my ancient posts.

Style | Premium Lager |
Country | Croatia |
Alcohol | 5.00% |
----- | --------- |
Appearance | Golden colored, clear white head, decent lacing. I am a sucker for such nice glasses. :) |
Aroma | Aroma of malt, grain, yeast, a bit of hops, distant tinge of floral scent. |
Taste | Quite simple. Medium sweetness and a slight bitter finish. Just what I was looking for while empty-headed. I had no patience for the flurry of sense ticklers. |
Palate | Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. It doesn’t shock you. Refreshing. |
----- | --------- |
Overall | I have a feeling they are improving it as time passes, ever since the advent of craft in Croatia. I might be wrong but let’s think positive. For now it is a great quality/price choice and many are drawn to it for that reason. I think this has a bright future. Don’t expect wonders though. |
Score (subjective, personal) | 13/20 |
Price: 15 kuna (2.30$) for 0.3 l. Budget. Bought on tap
