Big white head. Clear yellow body. Grainy maize aroma with mealy cardboard notes. Watery papery caramel taste. Mid-bodied. Still, mealy mouthfeel. Watery mealy aftertaste ... Ah, I can’t go on. This is just crap. So undrinkably awful. Drain pour. (0.5l can, from supermarket in St Petersburg.)

500ml bottle [Thanks Michel!]. Clear, yellow-ish, pale golden colour with small to average, frothy, half-way lasting, minimally lacing, snow-white head. Grainy, bready, minimally strawy aroma, a sweet-ish touch of honey. Taste is pale malty, minimally sweet, diluted hints of honey, a strawy and waxy touch; light and watery. At least quite clean, neither musty- nor mugginess.

Very pretty 500ml bottle (4.3% version) from European Shop opposite the Junction in Castleford - Clear yellow, no head. Nose is sweet, grassy, bit of grain. Taste is rather US Bud, but not in a bad way, a good one for the heat, clean but not too strong. A good chugger.

500ml bottle at 4.3%. Label is different to the one here - the neck reads "Rebirth of ancient Russian brewing traditions" and there is a small illustration of a pastoral scene above the name of the beer. Aroma is corn, lemon, white bread. Taste is sweet, corny, lemon notes. An unremarkable one, but at least it is drinkable.
