From bottle 0,33 litre. Nice color with foamy head which disappears quite quickly. Aroma almost innoticable. Taste very light, more like a limonade with a beer taste.

Clean golden color. Very light malty aroma. Dry sweet taste of malt, some hops and citrus. Light body and soft carbonation. Refreshing and drinkable, but nothing interesting.

Efter de första klunkarna var jag tvngen att titta efter på flaskan så att bäst före-datumet inte passerat med råge, men så var inte alls fallet. Så jag antar att det var en dålig tappning - eller att den här ölen är så usel som den faktiskt smakade. Ser ut som äppeljuice i glaset med ungefär lika litet skum. Doftar mest metall och jord, smakar avslaget. En viss maltsötma räddar den från katastrofbetyg.

Medium white head. Clear deep yellow body. Grainy minty maize aroma with earthy metallic notes. Dry-sweetish earthy peas and metal taste with oily mealy notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish, fizzy mouthfeel. Dry grainy grassy oily aftertaste with earthy peas and fruit notes. Nice, unusual, and subtle, with loads of character. (0.5l bottle, Bamb Alyne, Vilnius.)

Słodowo-słodkawe piwo, bez innych walorów smakowych. Chmielu się zupełnie nie wyczuwa. Typowy smak dla masowych lagerów

Draught. Hazy golden color. Small white head, stays. Malty, grainy aroma. Sweet, honey, malty, bitter flavor.

In short: A clean, easy to drink and unfortunately forgettable blond lager without character
How: Tap at Šnekutis Užupis, Vilnius, Lithuania
The look: Clear blonde body topped by a small white head
In long: Nose is basic clean cereals. Taste is doesn’t offer a lot more than that. Clean and crisp cereals with a mild honey sweetness and faint grassy hops. Active carbonation. I love a thirst lager, but this one just was lacking in character. From what I understand Rinkuškiai is one of the most widely available brewery in Lithuania, and although I thought this beer was rather boring, Rinkuškiai is still miles ahead of our adjunct corn-syrup stale North-American macro beers. I’m entering this rating on a wednesday afternoon from work, every time I have 10 minutes to kill at work I like to get on ratebeer for 45 minutes.

En fût. Pinte dégustée chez Šnekutis Užupis (Vilnius, Lituanie). Arôme: Légère odeur de céréales. Apparence: La couleur est blonde avec une très faible densité de bulle. Présence d’un moyen col mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Légère odeur de céréales avec une pointe herbacée. Courte durée de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement huileuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de céréales en arrière goût. (Rating #4181)

500ml bottle from local East European shop. A slightly greasy and grainy lager. Drinkable, but nothing interesting.
