Courtesy of THE douglas88, thanks again. Pours brownish copper with gold hues and thin white head. The aroma has notes of malts, crystal malts, hints of pine hops and grapefruit hops. The taste is full of malts to go along with a mild amount of roast then moving toward a modest level of pine hoppiness. Toward the finish a bit of hops return with a bit more hop bitterness than before and lingering into the after taste.

Opaque, almost tan colour. Fruity, spicy note with a fair bit of yeastiness. Very spicy, almost harshly so. Big malty body. Dry, spritzy finish.

Taste is smooth with a maltiness, brown sugar, and caramel blend that balance out some hoppiness. Taste is good, texture is a little light. Better than the average pale lager, but not as good as a true amber ale.

Bright reddish-bronze colour. Aroma is of woody, grapefruity, blood orangey hops. Flavour is sweet, with some light crystal or vienna malts and a hint of citrusy hops. Finishes fairly quickly.

Bright amber. No head despite a fairly vigourous pour. Oxidized pale malt aroma. Light body. Mild, sweetish, vaguely caramelly flavour with mushroomy undertones. Appropriate moniker for such a lifeless brew.

Bright dark bronze colour. Very toasty, slightly smoky aroma. Flavour is sweetish, mainly toasty, slightly nutty, caramelly. Dry finish. Very lagerish - quite similar to the Dunkel at the Joker Bar in Kazan, Russia.

Hazy dull tan colour, flat carbonation...is this Zhigulevskoye? The aroma is slightly lemony, with hints of grain. Flavour is sweetish, with musty, grainy accents. Somewhat wet finish. No muy bueno.

Botle Pours a deep mahogany with a decent off wite head. A constant thin layer is maintained as well as very nice lacing. Aroma is a full combination of hops and sweet dark malt. Some citrus rind notes as well. Flavor is a bitter sharp grassy flavor that is sour as well. Feel is good but aftertaste is a grassy bitter flavor that puts me off.
