Plastic bottle. Red-brown color, huge foam. Bready aroma. Flavor is mild, fruity, quite sweet with short finish. Drinkable.

UPDATED: MAR 28, 2009 1.5l Bottle - Copper/red in colour. Malty aroma with hints of buttery toffee. Malty with a faint sweetness with some slight fruity hints with elements of toffee.

Plastic bottle 1,5 ltr (BB 11/2006). Red-brown color, vanishing white head. Caramelly, diacetylic nose. Carbonated. Harsh malty with kind of buttery and grassy flavor. Sweet butterscotch is dominating the flavor. I suppose that this ain’t much better as fresh.

Yes, let's call it "Wiener Typ", though such half-dark lagers by its taste and aroma are very typical for post-Soviet products. Dark copper color, sweet sugary aroma, lots of malts and caramel in the palate. Hops are absent, as usual.
