Baltika 3 Klassicheskoe (Classic)

light golden, clear as a bell, head is white, thin, but mostly lasting. arom has typical paper bag, adjunct qualities...same as flavor..paper, corn and/or rice. as good as BMC.

Clear, golden appearance, even white head that sticks around for a bit with a bit of lacing. Aroma is grainy and slightly skunky. Balanced, even lager flavor at the beginning but sours near finish.

Very very pale color, perhaps light then even a Corona. Frothy soapy white head. For water it is not that bad. At least no harsh after taste. Though this beer is a little lacking.

It is not so good. Not much taste. But it is drinkable!

I was lucky enough to get a real fresh sample of this. Unfortunantly, it’s quite unimpressive. Faint golden color with a pale, unimpressive head. Not much in the aroma department. Flavor is quite mild and relatively well-balanced, but altogether boring. Slightly sweet finish with just a touch of hops. A sorta thirst-quenching beer, but really nothing special at all. Just a tad better than an average american standard.

500ml brown bottle. Grassy/sweet malt aroma, poured pale yellow. Head was fluffy white. Very faint malt and hops, watery.

The "delicate flavor" in the commercial description seems to mean "lack of flavor." Very pale and watery, even by America’s mass marketed lager standards. The metallic aftertaste was a real turn-off.

(on bottle)Very pale yellow and a nice head. Not bad, but it does kind of remind me of a cannned beer, that gassy, metallic feeling to the palate.
