The first Lithuanian beer, brewed since 1995, which has received international recognition along with a number of top awards. Bright gold in colour and with a thick foam on the glass Ekstra has gained its wide popularity for its balanced flavour which is enlivened with slight bitterness of hops. Once introduced, Švyturio Ekstra has become the most popular draft beer in Lithuanian restaurants and pubs as it is delivered to bars unpasteurized or live.

Bottled. It was gold w/ a substantial head. Smell is a bit fruity as is taste. Minor hops finish. Not the worst pale lager ever.

500ml bottle. A standard clear gold with small white head. Aroma has gome grassy and floral hops to go with the malts which is promising. Taste is malty, biscuit, not particulary sweet, grass, honey, mild bitter bite. Its decent enough for a macro lager, better than I was expecting.
