A beer that would have been classic IPA, but Mate the brewer added totally ‘inappropriate’ yeast in it.
Story behind the name is connected to Mateuz, yet another Polish man in Brlog. We dubbed him Mate because he arrived as an intern, but then stayed long-term to live and work with us, so he needed a Dalmatian nickname.
And the twist is made with this wheat yeast that brings along some sweet banana flavours to balance fresh citrusy hops. It’s what makes the yummy feeling when drinking it. Blurry golden colour. Full flavoured, drinkable, gentle bitterness, but smoothly disguised alcohol!
