This is the taproom of the Loo-Blah-Nah brewery and it took me longer than it should have done to work out how it was pronounced. It’s relatively newly opened and is well reviewed online, located next to the river. There is seating outside which might be rather more suitable in the warm summer rather than just before midnight on a cold and wet Saturday in November.
The venue only sells its own beer, but it’s an interesting little selection. I was served by the helpful team member when I entered, but then he went outside and ignored the other three. I suspect he was annoyed at Bev’s loudness, so he just wanted a moment to himself. We’ve all been there.
Steve looking confused where the team member had gone. I had my two beers though, so I was fine. It was a bright little environment in a row of shops which have a seating area by the market and a frontage to the river, it’s rather decent real estate. It wasn’t overly busy when we visited, but it was closing soon after although we were surprised in general how quiet Ljubljana was on a Saturday night.
My first beer was the Little IPA which was only 2.9%, so it wasn’t surprising that it was quite thin. However, it was light, gentle and inoffensive which is all a bit like me.
My second beer was the Porter and this was gentle in taste, with a flavour of coffee, chocolates and a bit of nut.
Bev, who hadn’t eaten in fifteen minutes since her two course meal, went to order a pretzel.
For my own preference, I thought that the music was quite loud for the number of customers and it did rather dominate the neighbourhood. The venue itself is relatively small, but I felt welcome and comfortable, it’s a decent little place to try the brewery’s beers. I thought it might have been nice to have a guest beer or two, but I enjoyed what they had.
