Beer Tasting - Session IPA ('Zo Session IPA' by Bevog Brewery)
After gym I decided to take a turn to the nearest Pub. When you lack inspiration, green monster is your friend!
That green monster is called Zo! It swims in hoppy water and preys on an unsuspecting Steemer.
Great times! It is made by my favourite foreign brewery - BEVOG!
They are located in Austria, and boast to be one of the best small craft breweries in the World. At least that is what RateBeer site says!

A mere 2 hours and 15 minutes drive from Zagreb. A great idea for family visit!
Never heard about it before? Who cares! You can get all the info at ‘The Who Cares for Beer Festival’ in September at the site of the Brewery.

Last year was a blast! Highly recommended for a potential Steemit meetup!
But onto more important things! Their latest product!
Always have some snacks at hand when tasting. That is a secret very few know!
Bevog Zo Session IPA by Bevog Brewery
Style | Session IPA |
Country | Austria |
Alcohol | 4.3% |
----- | --------- |
Appearance | Medium longevity head. Kinda sparkly. Weird fluorescent yellow color, never seen this before! Almost a tinge of green. Whoa! If I were a monster I’d swim in it for sure! |
Aroma | Deafening aroma, smelled it half a meter away. Hops, herbs, grapefruit, grass, green tea. Like it warns something swampy is about to bite. |
Taste | Bitterish bitter. Medicine like. Again, grapefruit. Heavy taste but low alcohol, impressive! Herbal too. Very salty. Simple. |
Palate | Medium carbonation. Watery. It is session IPA after all - kind of watered down IPA. |
----- | --------- |
Overall | It is love or hate with this one. I love it! Definitely not for a beginners palate. Good for an afternoon drink after physical activity. To sip on the beach while posh gentlemen have their cocktails. We know better. Downside is the price. Not many could afford getting drunk on this. |
Score (subjective, personal) | 16/20 |
Price: 34 kuna (5.15$) for 0.33 l. Splurge.

Haha, I was hoping someone would say that!
Bevog is extremely overpriced in my opinion.
I agree, but there is that specific aroma that just tingles the senses. Also, the art is really cool :/
Not a beer person myself, but enjoyed reading this post :)
