Kralja Tomislava 21, Pakrac, Hrvatska

Početkom srpnja 2018. pakračko-lipičko područje dobilo je svoju craft pivovaru, a oko koje se uz proizvodni dio razvija i turistička priča kroz kušaonicu za grupne posjete.

Za sad je u ponudi izbačen prvijenac brendiranog imena Grof koji nosi ime po grofu Juliju Jankoviću (1820-1904), nekadašnjem vlasniku pakračkog i daruvarskog vlastelinstva, a čiji karakter je na određen način oslikan u pivu.

Po stilu to je Amber Ale koji se ističe svojom umjerenom jačinom od 5,5 % vol. alkohola, a karakterizira ga blaga gorčina od tek 23 IBU-a te konzervativna nota slovenskih štajerskih hmeljeva s naglašenom sladnošću, koja dolazi od četiri vrste slada (Pilsen, Munich, Amber i Crystal).

Grofa je za sad odlično prihvatila lokalna publika jer je za nju prilagođen kako ističe glavni majstor pivar Marko Barčan te najavljuje kako će se Grofu  pridružiti i Grofica koja će po stilu biti American Pale Ale i na određeni način prilagođena nepcima ljepšeg spola.

Kralja Tomislava St. 21, Pakrac, Croatia

At the beginning of July 2018, the Pakrac-Lipik area got its craft brewery and around which, in addition to the production part, a tourist story develops through a tasting room for group visits.

For the time being, an offer has been thrown out of the original brand name Grof, which is named after Count Julius Jankovic (1820-1904), the former owner of Pakrac and Daruvar estates, whose character is in a certain way painted in beer.

In style it is Amber Ale, which stands out for its moderate strength of 5.5 % vol. of alcohol, characterized by a mild bitterness of only 23 IBUs and a conservative note of Slovenian Styrian hops with pronounced sweetness, which comes from four types of malt (Pilsen, Munich, Amber and Crystal).

The Grof has been well received by the local audience for the time being, as it is adapted to it by Master Brewer Marko Barčan, and announces that the Grof will be joined by the Grofica (Countess), which will be American Pale Ale in style and in some ways adapted to the palates of the more beautiful sex.
