Small beige head. Clear amber body. Earthy caramelly aroma. Dry-sweet strawy caramelly taste with perfumy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild mouthfeel. Dry chocolate and caramel aftertaste with perfumy bready notes. Could be worse, but not very interesting. (0.568l bottle from a supermarket in Moscow.)

Bottled pint (Stockmann, Tallinn, bottled 14.01.2012)
Clear copper color, small off-white head. Woody, herbal hoppy aroma with hints of caramel. Light to medium bodied. Herbal hoppyness, sweet caramel malts, short oily, even piney finish. Much better than "Old Bobby Lager".

In honor of our world map returning I figured let’s fill it in. And what better way than rating a beer from largest geographic country on earth. Pours bright amber with thin soapy head. No real nose andvtastes of caramel, grain, rye, metal, and a very watery palate.

Corny nose with a light honey undercurrent. Clear yellow, fizzy white head. Corn and fusel alcohol, rather unpleasant. Thin, even for the style. Worse than Baltika’s usual stuff.

Bottle from a Russian grocery on the shores of the Dead Sea. Light golden brown. Looks like a macro dark lager rather than the English ale it aspires to be. Lots of caramel. Very sweet on the palate. Sugars and caramel and not much else.

500ml Bottle - Copper coloured. Fruity and malty aroma with hints of dried fruit. Sweet,malty and fruity taste with dried fruit,caramel and a bittersweet finish. Not really like an ale at all. If this is an ale,then I’m a fish!

Bottled, from Norman, St. Petersburg. Clear nut brown, minimal head. Aroma of boiled vegetables. Sweet with clean, hard mouthfeel. Slight caramel before a pity tinny finish without bitterness. An industrial pale lager disguised as an ale.

Bottle. Clear deep amber with a small white head. Aroma of malt, a bit toasty, with caramel, biscuity notes, light fruitiness and a bit of earthy hops. Flavor starts sweet and caramelly with a fruity touch and finishes bittersweet with some hops. Medium-bodied. A bit too sweet and could use more hops but still quite easy-drinking.

1 Pint bottle, small quickly dissapearing head, clear copper to light red colour, aroma of vanila and herbs which feels like a bit like a lager, maybe its the yeast, also some maltiness in the back, sweetish flavour of biscuit and fruit, very light bitternes, lingering sweet fruit drops aftertaste. Drinkable but Quite dull.
