The full-bodied flavour of Alexander is clearly dominated by the bitter crispness of hops and it is balanced out by the stronger than average caramel flavour of the malt. Fresh hops linger in the finish of this light yellow lager with its dense bubbles.

500ml Bottle- Golden coloured with a white head. The aroma is grassy with a very subtle hoppiness and hint of citrus. The taste is malty and pleasant to drink but it is all a bit too boring.

bottle. Clear pale yellow, meidum-size head. Malty with grassy hops and a rather dry mouthfeel. Well balanced, not too sweet, medium carbonation which produces a pleasant mouthfeel. My first beer from Estonia.

(Bottle 50 cl) Beautiful golden beer with a pretty huge head. Mild with a very subdued bitterness, but on the other hand a pronounced malt-sweetness. A harmless lager. 190803

Bottled. Pale yellow, mediumsized white head. Malty aroma, not much else. Sweetish malt in flavour. No aftertaste, but the beer leaves the mouth sticky. Water and a bit too much carbonation in my opinion.

Pale yellow, small creamy white head. Very light sweet aroma. Palate is smooth but watery. Flavor is sweet and easy to forget. Glimpse of hops in finish. And yes, cap is nice (Tartu beer factory's tower).

A yellow beer with no head. The aroma is probably the best thing about this beer and it is sweet and malty - nothing special - even for a lager. The flavor is sweet and boring, only slightly bitter which throws off the balance and it is too carbonated. All in all a very boring beer. My advice: Keep away from it.

Classic Soviet-style sweet & flat lager, adjuncty, an interesting relic.
