Tap at Kaunas railroad station bar. Pretty neutral, which is a nice thing in a macro. Thin body, medium carbonation. Medium bittefness, light sweetness, light honeyish maltiness, vague grassy hops. Pretty easy drinking. Good for a macro, clean.

Golden can (500ml): best before 7 Apr 2013, poured into a bulbous ’Palm’ tulip at home on 1 Mar 2013. The can has golden foil over the opening end: almost posh looking! My can clearly states (not in English) that it is brewed by the ’Volsas Engelman’ company, not Ragutis. Usual lager/pilsner looks: pale gold, bright, clean and clear. Typical thin, none staying head of wispy white bubbles too. No real aroma to talk about: some damp cardboard with hop implants, otherwise nothing. The taste had a sweet, mildly malty front and middle, with a mini hop bitterness towards the end: nicely balanced but with little flavour or character to set it apart. The finish goes back towards the sweeter end of the flavours as the mouth dries, so not a hop laden brew at all. Body depth about right for the strength, a summer drink I’d have again.

bottle, kourtesy of kevnic - Danke! Clear golden colour, mid-sized white head. Malty base, slightly grainy, with some nice aromatic and bitter hops, slightly woody. Clean lager.
