On tap in St Petersburg, July 2011. Hazy golden with a small fluffy head. The aroma and taste was rather sweet with fruit and some notes of bread and citrus. Nothing sensational but a descent beer.

Draught at Pivnoi Bar Prokhodimets, St. Petersburg. Cloudy pale golden, small head. Doughy and creamy. Mid sweet with medium body and soft mouthfeel. Mild and fresh with whipped cream and spun sugar. Low bitterness. Pleasant.

Very pale, very cloudy. Looks like a wit. Wheat, spicy, musty, sweaty aroma. Light, wheaty character with some sweaty, citric notes. Very refreshing. Fresh citric hoppiness, clean pale and wheat malt notes. That said, it’s not billed as a wheat beer but just as a lager. But this really tastes to me like a wheat.
