Baltika 3 Klassicheskoe (Classic)

Bottle from Morrisons. Straw Yellow with white fizzy head. Sparkling. Aroma lightly fruity, appley, grassy. Thin bodied. Slightly bitter finish. Better than expected.

Bottle. Pale straw colored beer with a nice white head. Non-descript aroma that you’d describe as lager-like. Some fruitiness to the flavor along with some malt. Medium body and finish. Easy drinking.

Good colour and a good white head, leaving some lace, steady bead of bubbles.There is some soft malty chararcter and some light hops on the palate, thats yer lot, I’ve had a lot worse.

This bottled brew poured a large sized head of foamy white colored bubbles beneath a frothy top of mostly diminishing finely sized bubbles. The body was carbonated transparent and pale yellow in color with a fair lacing. The aroma was that of dirty socks malty and very off. It had a tingly thin mouth with a mildly astringent aftertaste. The flavor was malty hoppy and had a mild dirt note.

Bottle (500ml) Poured bright, clear, light brassy-yellow with a large white frothy head - decent lacing. Aroma is light, sugary sweet with some sour apple and vegetal notes, moreso with warming. Tastes like apple cores, weak sourish malt - not offensive, but not really there, either - develops a pleasant ripe apple sweetness on warming, with very vague hoppiness developing. Watery mouthfeel. I’d like to try their porter, this ain’t no thang ...

Bottle. Best before 24.08.04. Poured a large sized white head with fine, small and large sized bubbles, good lacing, transparent, and a yellow hue. Aroma was malty and hoppy as was the flavor. Tingly palate. Medium body.

Aluminum can. Clear very pale yellow. Sweet alomsot cidery aroma. Light apple flavors with maybe some light malt. Nothing technically wrong with it I guess, but it was plain, bland, boring. But it didn’t taste bad or offensive - so points there.

From a can. Poured a clear pale yellow. Aroma of sweet malt. Fruity flavor almost like a fruint drink/punch. Clean with a very mild bitterness on the finish. Light bodied. This wasn’t too bad, it was just light and plain.
