Pan Zlatni

Tap to rate

Pan Zlatni is a golden lager at 5.0% ABV with a rich head and full flavour. Its aroma is recognisably beery, and a somewhat more pronounced but refined bitterness comes from a special hop variety. Roasted barley malt and an extract of it sit alongside barley malt, barley and maize grits in the recipe, and the original gravity is 11.1 degrees Plato.

◌ Aroma

The nose carries a distinctly beery character with a pronounced grain-forward foundation. Noble hop aromatics emerge with restraint and refinement, contributing herbal and slightly mineral undertones without overwhelming the malt-driven profile. Subtle notes of roasted barley add depth and complexity to the otherwise clean, straightforward bouquet.

◐ Taste

The palate opens with a solid maltiness that builds through the mid-section, supported by roasted barley character and a touch of corn sweetness that provides structural support. A refined but pronounced bitterness emerges mid-palate from the special hop variety, creating tension with the malt backbone. The finish remains full-bodied with layers of roasted grain and a clean, moderately persistent hop bite.
