Plastic bottle sample at a tasting at avrashi’s place. Thanks Tom L. Brown. Caramel, citric acid, some rye bread. Sweet flavor, sugary, slightly tart, caramelly, a bit of rye bread. Easy-drinking.

Jul ’14. A 0.5 l plastic bottle that poured clear brown body with small head. Yeast, sweet caramel, a bit of roasted bread and some herbal aroma. Flavor was sweet, lightly herbal and lactic sour, but mostly only roasted and toasted malt was present. Quite carbonated which adds to sourness a bit and sugary towards the finish so I understand parallels with the Coke, Pepsi and other "western" stuff, although this is of course completely different drink. No traces of alcohol could be felt, but fermentation was obvious. Does not impress me anyway, just like similar Dutch low alc. styles.

Bottle from Subway in Moscow. Aroma is predominantly of raisins. Taste is also raisins, as well as caramel and molasses. It's quite nice and not too sweet.

Thanks Natko! Looks like Coke. Aroma... sweet malty attack, huge raisins. The taste, as expected, starts off with a similar extreme maltiness, caramel & raisins, but a nice sourness keeps it in check, making it actually quite palatable, if you feel like it. Don’t expect to be awed, but this is ok for what it is.
