Beer Tasting: Staropramen Unfiltered and Green Gold Hop Dealer

Hello, beer tasters! 🍺 🍻 😎 🍻 🍺

Are you ready for #beersaturday? If you are, then take a beer in your hand and read on. If you're not ready, then skip it. There will be no harm done.
But if you are a member of the BEER community, then take 5 minutes, maybe you'll learn something new about your favorite drink. :)

Again, I have two new beers I haven't tried yet and I wonder if they are worth my (and your) attention. I would say yes, I have picked them up in local shops. One is from a large and reputable European brewery, the other is from a local microbrewery.

Staropramen Unfiltered

Brewed by Staropramen Brewery, Prague, Czech Republic. That's the biggest Czech brewery and one of the most popular also here in Slovenia and I believe in other parts of Central and Eastern Europe also. Can, 0.5 l, alcohol 5.0% ABV.

They say:

Full flavored premium beer brewed from wheat malt and the finest hops that meet a touch of coriander.

Ugh, after reading that on the can, I can't stand coriander ... we'll see how it goes ...

btw: in the background is my crypto art Lockdown Selfie II. You can check NFT cinemagraph in NFT Showroom.

The beer is a cloudy orange color, yes, it is unfiltered, there is a lot of head and it is very creamy. The first sip flows very smoothly down the throat, there is more of a wheat sweetness, no hop bitterness, I don't taste any coriander, a citrus note in the background, very discreet, and then all the taste disappears relatively quickly from the mouth.

Well, here's one beer meme before trying another beer :)

Green Gold Hop Dealer Session Hazy IPA

Brewed by microbrewery Green Gold Brewing, Šempeter, Slovenia. Can, 0.5 l, alcohol 4.5% ABV. Hazy/NEIPA style, unfiltered. That's something new from Green Gold brewery, they don't have it in a webshop, but I bought it in Spar's local store.

The beer is cloudy yellow, unfiltered, with a solid head that quickly disappears. The first sip is immediately full of sweet tropical fruit flavors, fed by a solid bitterness from the different types of hops used. In the aftertaste, the bitterness of the hops remains on the mouth for quite some time.

It's not very NEIPA, which for me means very strong fruit flavours, the freshness of the fruit is there but not so strong. A light and very drinkable beer, I'd have a whole 6pack in the fridge but the price is a little bit high (€2.79, as I noticed the most expensive beer in the Spar store) so I'll have it only occasionally :)

And what I'm listening to as I write this? Something from my last #newtunes post. The guy reminds me to Bruce Springsteen.
