| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | May 16, 2008 Straw gold body, chunky white head. Aroma is grassy and sweet. Flavor is mostly sour malts and adjunct sweetness; very little hoppiness. I guess this is the Russian Bud; nothing I’d seek out but certainly not terrible. mreusch (724), Olathe, Kansas, USA
| 2.3 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Apr 14, 2008 My go to beer while in Russia! Enjoyed while in Moscow in 2002, and enjoying again here in Astrakhan in 2008. This will no doubt be a biased rating due to my fond memories associated with this beer. Pours clear and very light yellow, with a small foamy head that actually leaves a bit of lace. Aroma is fairly non-existent, but there is a glimpse of hops there, I swear. Flavor is also a tiny bit of hops, with some slight maltiness. Generally devoid of anything representing character or flavor. Even thought its available back home, I’d only buy this in Russia where there are literally no other choices offering a better experience. Vodka anyone? TrefwoordPunk (548), Leiden, Netherlands
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 11/20 | Apr 13, 2008 Bottle 50 cl. Pours a clear yellowish golden with a very small white head and a hoppy aroma that isn’t pleasant. The taste is grainy with a really soft mouthfeel and a slightly hoppy finish. The taste is a tad sweet, which is uncommon for a pale lager, but I do like this for that style. JayBaxter (387), Greater Manchester, Greater Manchester, England
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 9/20 | Mar 30, 2008 Clear gold lager with thin white head. Aroma is faintly malty but larger-ish and the taste is malty and quite drinkable. daniele (1676), Italy

| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 4/5 | 15/20 | Mar 28, 2008 Bottled. This beer pours a clear yellow-gold body with white head. Aroma is light beer...lager. Taste is slight malt, smooth. Pretty easy to drink. WISEGUY572 (1245), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA
| 2.2 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 4/10 | 2/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 10/20 | Mar 26, 2008 Crystal clear gold, huge foamy white head that vanishes, leaving no lace. Almost no nose, unless you pay very careful attention; then you can get a touch of grassy lager hops. Slight malt, slight hops, really nothing happening here. Tasting at the Beer Yard in Wayne ... thanks ... this way I don’t ever have to buy this.
