SaintMatty (2847) - Uppsala, - MAR 10, 2009

MartinT (6340) - Montreal, Quebec, CANADA - MAR 11, 2012
My Bottom Line:
Honey-laced cereals ride this lager’s soft effervescence while herbal hops provide a smidge of bitterness.

Further Personal Perceptions:
-A slice of foam tops the clear golden.
-Their lineup is really similar to Rinkuskiai’s, an important competitor in Northern Lithuania.
-Mouthfeel is quite pleasant. Many Czech breweries (the bigger ones) produce similar brews.
-Although generic, this is perfectly serviceable and showcases its quality malts nicely.

Bottle.

FatPhil (6206) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - AUG 2, 2009
UPDATED: APR 8, 2012 500ml bottle (SOPP2009) (4:2:4:2:7=1.9)
Pale. Nondescript aroma. Dull malty taste, low hops. A touch papery. Heading towards macro levels. Some honey and floral perfume.
Rerate: 500ml bottle (Birzu Brewery) (5:2+:5:3:10-=2.5)
Pure barley grains. Smooth palate. Sweetish grainy taste. Quite full for a pale. Good lacing, but otherwise very pale.
