Or the so-called Angel's Kiss!
This is another brew from the Romanian brewery HOP HOOLOGANS, but this time it is a collaboration with the ZAGOVOR brewery. The name of this beer sounds very intriguing, and the style is, well, a bit long, but you get an actual info about the beer in the can, right?

Interesting labeling, yeah? The brewery has some very distinctive and unique style. What do you think? Do you like the label with these statues and this bright pink color?

So now, let's proceed to the tasting.
Psst!

Here comes a pour!

Now we can see that the actual color of the label is not imaginary. It was there... in the can. We just could not see it. But this beer truly is... Pink! ANd yeah, smells like a juice, some shake, but hell yeah, the hops are very pronounced in the nose.

On this room light it seems darker, but trust me, it is pink. And yeah, they have surely put a lot of fruits in this beer.
Now to the tasting... Very fresh, a bit acidic from the cherries maybe, and some residual sweetness from the heavy malting and stuff... I cannot tell if the hops carry some fruity aromas between these strawberries and cherries, but definitely a lot of pine and traditional hop aromas here.

The fact that the Romanian brewers publish a list of all the ingredients on every packaging is awesome. Do you think you could try to make a clone of this beer in your place? I can try to achieve something similar, but dont know when. This beer I would describe as a very tasty dessert beer. Sweet with sour fruit compliments.
In other words, I loved it.
