Pivovariya Bratsk Reviews
 Beershine |
2.7 Sibiryak Zhivoe draft @ the great taproom near Bier Haus in Ulan-Ude. Hazy cantaloupe-orange. Sourness taints the aroma. It’s resinous but has nice fruity flavors mixed in with nutty malts. The tartness below is like an adjunct or extension of the fruitiness. Sweet-tart like a passionfruit or a dried apricot. Saturday, August 27, 2011 | |

2.1 Sibiryak Zhivoe On tap in Ulan Ude. Cloudy. Not much head. Slight straw notes and light footiness. Light yeasty funk on the palate as well. Light malty character. Decent macrobrew. Thursday, August 25, 2011 | |

2.4 Bratskoe Temnoe Bottle on train to Irkusk. Color is dark amber-brown with an initial tight small beige cap. Aroma is lots of what I believe to be intentional butter/manageable diacetyl. Spicy too, so reminiscent of gingerbread cookies but bad, industrially-manufactured ones like boxed gingersnaps. Buttery and also phenols. Silky palate. Tastes alright, with nice bready malt character. The diacetyl/butter is well-integrated. Honey, molasses, and again with the phenolic gingersnaps. Drinkable, though. Thursday, August 18, 2011 | |

2.2 Bratskoe Temnoe Very light brown. Only a tiny bit of head on this one. The aroma of diacetyl - again in a way that must have been intended, in that Czech sort of way - and the rest is dark malts and caramels. The taste is the same - caramels with light diacetyl for character. The body has some fullness - there are definitely people who would like this more than I do. Monday, August 15, 2011 | |

1.7 Bratskoe Svetloe Golden colour. Not much head. The aroma is a bit buttery with some possible malt and glueyness. The palate is also a bit buttery in a Czech pilsner kind of way. Monday, August 15, 2011 | |
