La più famosa pale lager estone, si può dire senza timidezza che non sa di nulla

One of the more popular pilsners in Estonia. Light beer, ok but not in any way special or flavoursome. Very pale yellow appearance, not much head (as seems to be the preference in the region). The aroma is rather weak: sweet, floral hints with some malts. Sweet flavour with almost no hops and little pronounced malts.

(Bottled, 2.0l) Clear, paleish golden color with a medium, foamy head. Original, sweetish aroma with toffee, red currants and strawberries. Red-curranty flavor with mild maltiness, some acidity, and almost no hops. Light-bodied and slicky palate with medium, smooth carbonation. Very easily drinkable, but just at least as easily forgettable...

Plastic bottle 2 ltr (BB 09/2005)
Pale yellow, not much head. Sweet malty, almost strawberry-like sweetness. Weak maltyness, mostly grassy hops in the flavor. Not a real killer, but not so unpleasant either, like the most of plastic bottle bulks are. In the finish some sweetness.
