Bottled. Clear amber, brief head. Dryish with a flavour made up of roasty, burnt malt. Clean with low hop rate and licorice finish.

Tawny brown with little head. Nice clean Dunkel, hints of roast nuts, caramel.

Deep red with yellowish head. Aroma of toffee, caramel, faint floral hops, some sulphur. Taste toffee, malty, nutty, some herbal hops. Light body, aking to watery. Light spicy bitterness and light caramel sweetness in the aftertaste, Slight drying astringency. Very quaffable mainstream beer, tasting simple but balanced. Nice drop!

Sweet and toasty bitter flavour, light to medium bodied with a moderate carbonation. Slightly sugary malty taste but with balanced toasted accents and notes of caramel, a tinge of liquorice and traces of herbal hops; sweet and slightly toasted malty and bitter, also quite lasting finish. A tad sweet but likeable. 12.IV.11

Bottle. Dark red color, white head. Aroma of raisins. Sweet fruity flavor, some hoppy tones at finish. Interesting.

500ml Bottle (Helsinki Beer Festival 2010) - Red in colour. Malty aroma with hints of dried fruit and caramel. The taste is sweet with raisins and caramel. It gets a bit sickly after a while.

Deep amber color, small off-white head. Very grassy nose with some caramel. Harsh malty, grassy, some solvent (5,2%!). Quite typical "Baltic"-Russian beer. Industrial and not very clean.
