mmmbeer (603), Austin, Texas, USA Nov 12, 2007 From bottle- poured transparent thin yellow, bubbly head quickly disappeared. Aroma of malt and grains- not over appealing, but nice. Hits the mouth with a watery thin body that quickly disappears, finish has an extremely tiny amount of hops, clean finish. Better than US Macrobrews, but still not something to go crazy about.
Gypsy19 (255), AMERICA RISING, USA Nov 2, 2008 A decent lager with notes of honey and citrus. Not great, but drinkable. Fair overall. OD40oz (417), Box Elder, South Dakota, USA Oct 26, 2008 This one had a nice skunky taste. Crystal clear yellow with a bright white head. I wasn’t too high on this beer but it definitely wasn’t terrible.. If you want a good beer from Baltika, try the porter. GreatLibations (1330), Sasquatcho, Arizona, USA Oct 17, 2008 Clear bottle, pale golden color, tall head that lasts, mild aromas, medium nectar with lazy effers. Possesses a malty sweetness with a mild bittering on the finish. Not bad but not good either. I like Coors better. robforbes (788), Bremerton, Washington, USA Sep 20, 2008 pours a clear pale yellow with a thin white head that didspates rapidly, above average carbonation, no lacing.
smell is of sweet grain, few hops, some citrus.
taste is crisp, grain, some malt, few hops, some lemon, ends dry with a touch of bitterness. rkuhnel (1199), Eureka, California, USA Sep 8, 2008 After working my way through some really vile offerings from AB, it was a relief to find something drinkable to wash it all down with. This was clear gold with a nice white head and good lacing. Nose was light caramel malts and floral hops. Medium mouthfeel. Flavor is big on malts and the finish is dry. Simple, but drinkable lager.
