Golden colour. . No head. Grainy, lightly appley aroma. Fizzy palate but with a light toastiness.

Bottled 500ml. -from some gas station in Ukraine. Straight from the bottle. Slight malty, mild grainy and bready with bitterish watery finish. Ordinary Ukraine lager.

Bottle. Medium gold, thin film. Aroma is mainly grainy with a hop extract varnish on a plastic underlayer. The palate is sweet and corny. The flavors are not that bad really, its perfectly tolerable even if not good, there is at least a semblance of balance even if seemed too sweet at first. Ive had worse.

Transferring my data before I used to rate at Ratebeer. I’ll add a more detailed description as I drink it again, I promise.

Pours clear gold with a white head. Clean malty and grainy aroma. The flavor has grainy malt with some light sweetness.

Bottled. Pale golden colour with airy head. Vegetable rotten nose. Soft mouthfeel and bit fruity with no bitterness.

Some strange looking notes, that are far beyond my ancient language reading abilities.

Pours with almost no head, piss-yellow colour with some carbonation is emanating from the glass. Smells barely like grains. Oh boy, another boring Ukrainian lager, I’m thinking! Taste is.... uh, taste? Can’t taste anything.... feels a little syrupy, and that’s about it. Incredibly boring. Why bother?

500ml bottle, bb.30.06.09, purchased at a kiosk in central Zaporizhzhya. Straw-yellow body under a fading, white head. Mild aroma of citric grass. Sweet citric flavour with a touch of corn. Lively carbonated and foamy mouthfeel. Thin to medium bodied. Does not carry much of interest (10.07.2009).

Bottle, 4.4%. Almost clear pale yellow colour. Very small white head. The flavour is quite thin. Has a little fruity citrus note. Low bitterness. Quite clean, but boring.
