Baltijos

Huge yellowish offwhite head, partly coarse. Beautiful amber body with fast carbonation. Aroma is a subtle, harmonic mix of butter, roastiness, rubber, and milk. Taste is sweet, roasty rubber malts. Aftertaste is dry butter. It’s quite well made, but they decided to put in some stuff I don’t like, notably butter and rubber. Overall score is pretty low, because of that. (0.5l bottle.)

Bottled(500ml). –Reddish-brown coloured, medium white head. Aroma of malt with caramel and toffee. Maybe slight smoked notes. Very nice Vienna style beer.

0.5l bottle courtesy of and shared with ozujsko (thanks !). This poured a beautiful misty deep red colour with a medium sized thick white-going-tan head that went away at a medium pace. The nose surprised me. A huge, nice, aroma of (not artificial) pineapple struck me. It later on disappeared, and started being only toffee/caramel. Medium/light body with intensive (for the style), crude-ish hoppy bitterness and caramel. Naturally, hops dominate the aftertaste as well. A very interesting beer and a pleasant surprise. My first encounter with a Lithuanian beer went well. Would have called this a Vienna sooner than Märzen, but others know better I guess. Interesting... the numbers are quite similar to the two before it, and I’ve never seen those before (wrote the numbers down with my notes as I drank the beer).

Had this both in bottle and draught in Vilnius over the last weekend. An amber beer that is a little too sweet for my liking, also quite malty. Didn’t detect too much of an aroma. Fine enough but not great.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful, clear amber with a small, off-white head. Vague, malty nose. Malty, soft body with pronounced notes of sweetish caramel. Short, dry finish. Pleasant and quite harmonious. 301005

Dark copper coloured, big foamy head. Alcoholic and caramelly aroma with metallic hints. Interesting flavour, at the same time it is bitter hoppy as it is sweetalcoholic and fruity, with hints of roasted malt. Spicy finish and aftertaste.

An amber beer with a nice orange head. The aroma is sweet with notes of alcohol and metal - a totalitarian aroma. The flavor is of alcohol and peaches as well as hints of metal, leading to a dry end. A bit too totalitarian for me.

Very dark brown beer with a bubbly head. The aroma is malty and very strong in the alcohol department, the flavour is very rich, strong and Christmas pudding like with hints of raspberry. Overall quite a reasonable strong beer from Lithuania.

Medium golden brown colour, with an off-white head. Brown sugar aroma. Very sweet with brown sugar and molasses notes. A little thin maybe, but it seemed bockish based on maltiness and strength.
