500ml bottle. Brown-orange color, with a nice lively head. First ex-Soviet Block Marzen I’ve had to my knowledge. This is quite a pleasant surprise. Full and rich, with lots caramel malt sweetness. Very fresh tasting. There is, however, a slight adjuncty presence in the finish, perhaps sugar. Pretty good beer, worth a try.
