1.5 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 4/20
Bought it in a batch in Estonia, drinking now and only realised it’s 0.8%.
Tastes more like Coke than Beer. After a few normal beers it tasted really sweet but is now growing on me!
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
Bottle. Dark brown body, minimal head. Aroma of rye and CO2. Taste also has rye. Ends slightly citric. Too sweet and watery.
2.5 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
Ruby red, small of white head. Nose is bready, malty and sweet, so is the taste, but with some sour notes in the background. Wold be better with less sweetness and more sourness. Not bad when cold., quite refreshing actually.
1.8 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
Both - 0,5L glass bottle for estonian market and 1L PET bottle Lidskoe Kvass in Belarus. Same drinks. This beverage is far better than artificial so-called Kvass or Kali. Refreshing, little bit sour (only little bit). For summerdays.
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
0.5 l bottle, thanks SaintMatty! Reddish brown color, sparkling appearance. Dry nutty aroma with rye malt. Sweetish rye malt flavor. OK low alcohol beer, I could drink this with food.
2 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottled (BB 06/2009)
Thanks SaintMatty!
Brown color, small off-white head. Sticky berry-sweet nose with hints of ryebread. Molasses, very sweet, rye bready wort flavor. Quite close to traditional kvass.
2.1 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 8/20
Bottled (thanks SaintMatty!). Murky ambery brown colour, small beige head. Aroma is fruits, wood, caramel malts and mash. Flavour is sweet grains, mash, some mild rye and raisins as well.
2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 9/20
500ml bottle (Stockman, Tallinn)
Sweet rye-bready aroma, some raisins. Crisp carbonation, sweet palate. Tastes a bit water, but has all the rich fruity buttery bread pudding that I like in a kvas. Alas the wateriness wins , but this makes it less sticky. And thank goodness it’s not just a chemical coctail unlike many other Estonian kalis now are.
2.2 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
500ml Bottle - Dark brown with red tinges. Malty aroma with brea and some faint fruity and roasted hints. Sweet and malty taste with bread, grain and some dried fruits. Sweet, but not excessive compared to some.
