Best Party Beer - Grička Vještica by Medvedgrad Brewery

in #beer7 years ago (edited)

Everyone is freaking out about STEEM price. Yes it has taken a hit, but is it all over? Not if history likes to repeat itself. I checked out what I drank 5 months ago, and I found an interesting chart of mine.


Sentiment hasn’t much changed, don’t you think?

Just look at the STEEM chart. Where is the bottom, what do you think? If you listened to my yesterday’s advice, you are all that much wealthier now.

Chart 5 months ago:

Do you remember what soon enough followed? STEEM to $8. I’m not saying it has to rise again but there are such things as market cycles. But do they work as in stocks? If anything, it is only quicker and more volatile here.

What time is it? It’s birthday time! I was thinking of doing a special episode today. What is a best buy if you are planning a party?

You could go macro. Sure. Probably most of your friends wouldn’t mind one bit. But if you go craft, I consider price, vague idea of how it tastes, bottle size and overall quality.

Basically you want something that is not much more expensive than your friendly neighbourhood macro lager, but delivers a solid experience.

You can’t go with very bitter IPAs, sours or anything extravanagant. You want it to be easily likeable. Half a liter is a must. It’s a party, not a tasting event.

In my case I settled for Grička Vještica by Medvedgrad, a doppelbock. Extra on alcohol. Save some time and get everyone tipsy sooner rather than later. Taste is on the sweet side and a bit roasty. Guys and girls can like it easy enough. It’s about 50% more expensive than macro but craft can easily go up to 300% more. They recently switched back to 0.5 bottles, thankfully. And I think it’s a solid beer overall. Last but not least it is not that rare. You can get it in a lot of supermarkets.

Here is my old review. I hope @cheetah won't attack me.

Grička Vještica

StyleDunkler Bock
CountryZagreb, Croatia
BreweryMedvedgrad Brewery
Alcohol7.5%
--------------
AppearanceDeep amber to amber brownish color. SLightly misty. Rocky head which slowly settles. Awesome iconographic on the bottle. An iconic figure in Zagreb history.
AromaMalts, some corn. Musk. Manly.
TasteLots of barley, some young wine. A bit of roasted taste. It’s not for pussies. I’d imagine dwarves drinking this is some backwater tavern.
PalateMedium carbonation and body. Silky but then again rough in a way. Leaves sugary aftertaste. Alcohol is somewhat subdued.
--------------
OverallThis stuff gets the job done. You want decent high alcohol without too much experimentation, you found your drink. Not the best they offer but the most famous one. This one would get a thumbs up from a layman and a true beer connoisseur. Versatile, everyday drink. Not a delicacy.
Score (subjective)12/20

Price: 14 kuna (2.30$) for 0.5 ml. Supermarket. Mid-range

Looks like crypto is headed back to where it was 3 months ago. If the chart continues and then slowly rises, it will form a giant cup and handle which is very bullish. The only question is where is the bottom, how long will it take to form the cup, and will it form the cup again. I think it will, but it may take months to even 1 year...just my opinion

Good your posting

Well, STEEM was much lower than this and people still continued posting and staying active on this platform. I think it's a great time to accumulate more STEEM, because it's easier now!

This is actually making much sense@buzzbeergeek

Yeah it's so tasty!

Happy birthday brother.

And yeah, market is so Red at the moment, some of my friend are so shock about it, But when I first started, the price is still lower, so I still can smile about it. : 0

Hey! Happy Birthday indeed buzzbeergeek! If you're having to buy beer for an entire party, I suppose it's best to limit it to a mid-level beer, to keep from going broke. Cheers to you!

I remember drinking one of this brewery’s beers when I was in Zagreb last summer. I think the beer name was CRNA KRALJICA. It was not perfect, but very good for its price range. This one sounds to be better than the one I tried.
Cheers!

Grička is one of my favorite Croatian beers and it is a great choice for parties. You said it, and I agree, it is very hard to find someone who doesn't like this beer!
I hope your party went well and I wish you happy birthday! No wonder you love beer that much, considering you were born a day after St. Paddy. 🍀 🍺

Actually it's 17th! Late with posting ;) Thanks a lot mate!

Hahaha, so it is exactly on St. Paddy, in a way that makes you obliged to love and drink beer :)
