Golden coloured. Aroma of honey. Watery. Very thin and sweet flavour. Very bad and boring.

Nice aroma. Malty, round and sweet. Watery and weak flavour. Brown colour. Some caramel. Not bad.

Fluid clear cornflakes colour; thin dirty-yellow head. Milky, artificial vanilla, chamomille - and maybe some malt in the nose? Offputting. Unbelievably dull malt taste. Lactic, lactose, strange sweet flavours - not artificial in se, but very "unbeery". Nor refreshing. Sticky, flour-like mouthfeel, not light. Terrible beer, really. Soviet indeed, Josh.

Golden colour. Caramelly, sweaty aroma. Sweetish flavour - bland and slightly grassy. Flat. Malty flavour, but poorly extracted and with plenty of adjuncts. Yup - it’s Zhigulevskoe all right.
