Ekstra Draught is the legendary pale lager beer of Svyturys which undergoes microfiltration rather than pasteurisation before it is bottled and therefore retains it qualities of live beer. The golden brown beer stands out with its thick white foam, well rounded flavour, rich, smooth, long-lasting taste with a slight hint of the bitterness of hops. Many surveys have showed this top-quality beer to be Lithuanias hot favourite.

Barwa złota, klarowne, piana biała, średnio obfita, średnio trwała. W aromacie słodowe. W smaku słodowe, czysty profil, dość delikatne. Goryczka niska do średniej, wysycenie i ciało w normie. Nic specjalnego.

500 ml bottle from Melbourne Beach Market. Pours a crystal clear dark gold color with a white head and great retention. Very good lacing too. Standard Euro lager aroma. Pretty standard Euro lager flavor too, but with more malt flavor and much less skunky notes than most. Clean, and semi-crisp mouthfeel. Medium body. Soft carbonation. No bitterness. Actually pretty decent. Pleasantly surprised.

Ok. It's certainly better than a lot of other Carlsberg subsidiaries and their own.

04-10-20 // 500ml bottle. Clear golden. Sweetish malty and grainy. Boring but okay.

500ml bottle from a local 'Eastern European' shop: BB 26th May 2021. Drank while eating a slice of Pizza and after a 5 mile walk with the dog, 11th Sep 2020. Bright golden body, clean and clear, the head a fast fading white affair. Surprised it has been scored so poorly by so many, as I found it refreshing and thirst quenching with enough going on malt and hop wise to keep me interested. Sure it's not hoppy nor malty, it's just a pleasant, easy drinking Dort and a lot better than some I've tried from more revered breweries.
