Bottle, 500ml, 5.1% ABV. A pale yellow colour with a medium-sized head that diminishes to nothing. Light aroma of hops and honey. A well-balanced taste of hops and malt with some caramel and bread/yeast. A hoppy, citrus finish. Moderate carbonation. Quite pleasant and easy to drink.

Slightly offensive sardine tin-aroma. Smells like a budget tinned lager. Body golden and spritzy, with a generously billowy head. At first. Flavour thin and grassy, with a dash of chemical bitterness. If I’d paid 60cents for this in a Greek supermarket, I’d be disappointed. Quite an unpleasant experience.

16.9 oz bottle- A clear golden color with a big white head. An aroma of corn and skunk. Taste of corn and a little malt and a little watery. I was expecting worse coming from Russia but its not bad.

HAD THIS ON MY 30TH BIRTHDAY!!!1pint,9oz . brown bottle 5% ABV straw yellow, white head. Not sure how this is different from Baltika2. Smells like cereal. Not much hop aroma. This one is much more balanced than that #2. More hop bitterness on the palate in the finish.

500ml bottle, 4.8% a/v As promised pours with a foamy white hda and a general gold colour, nothing fancy. The smell is chemically and malty at the same time.. weird. The taste is of malt and chemicals... not very good. Drinkable but reminiscent of my teenage years drinking 40 ouncers of garbage beer. Not recommended, unless your looking to up your count.

Pale yellow pour under a thin white head. Strong chemical aroma (artificial skunk). Less offensive flavor but still very weak and marginally hoppy. What the h*ll is a "first class malt?" This is a first class drain pour that actually makes a bud taste g... *cough* .... *cough*... makes a Bud taste like something.

Bottle (Waitrose): Clear, high carb yellow with a lasting white head. Bland, bready lager with a pretty boring bitter finish. Clean, but very boring.
