Smells of grain and creamed corn. Dull rinsewater appearance. Quite grainy, with a cereal finish. Pretty bland. Thin - well attenuated I guess that would be. Talk is cheap though - this claims to be a Baikal beer but it doesn’t go well with omul. If you don’t go well with omul, you’re not a real Baikal beer.

Uber pale with fairly stable cap. The bland aroma is sweet bubblegum, a lot like a Bazooka before chewing it--you know, the way it smells when just unwrapped with the powder still on it. Soft palate. Plain flavors also only have some phenol in the bubblegum department.
