0,5l bottle. Pale yellow color. Very small white head. Metallic, malty aroma. Watery, grainy, malty texture. Typical Viru. Nothing special.

Pale gold, small head. Malty sweet aroma with notes of cardboard. The flavor is grain with more cardboard and some honey. Not that good.

Bottle. Appearance is average. The flavor is grainy and sweet, but also a bit watery. However, there is some light hay and honey taste in it. Bland but not bad.

500 ml bottle. From Pärnu, Estonia.
Clear pale golden colour with small white head. Sweetish malty aroma. Flavour is also malty with tiny hints of hops (?). It really is just thirst quencher (janukustutaja).

Bottle. Golden color, some white head. Aroma is more malty. Malty flavor, watery, without power.

500ml Bottle - Golden in colour with a white head. Malty aroma with hay and a very light honey hint. Malty taste with grain, a hint of lemon and moderate bitterness and sweetness.

500ml bottle.
Rich yellow, brief head. almost no aroma. Fizzy palate. Dreadfully boring bland under-fermented lager taste. Some chemical hop extract hop hint. Mostly blah.

Bottled. Pale golden colour with mediumsized foamy head, some slight lace. Aroma is sweet malts along with grain and hay and also some slight saltwatery notes. Flavour is very much the same along with some grassy bitterness. Once it warms up also some notes of metallicness show.

Golden with an OK head. The aroma has notes of straw and malt, the flavour is sweetish with notes of malt, a bit of caramel and a very light bitterness. It’s not very well balanced. 2077
