0,5 flaske fra super'n på hjørnet, delt med Kitty på hotellrommet i Jerevan etter en lang dag i bussen fra Tbilisi: klar gylden med fint skum som varer. Lys malt, litt urter, hint av tropiske frukter og et godt innslag av citrus, særlig søt citron og mandarin. Fin bitterhet i avslutningen pluss en liten overraskelse i form av mersmak.

Two 250ml bottles. Pours clear gold with a medium-sized white head. Aroma is grain, butter, slighlty sulphuric. Taste is medium sweet, malt, butter. Light bitter finish. I don't understand why they decided to bring this beer back now, I also don't get why they would bottle it in such small bottles.

500ml can. Strangely, there is a beer that looks exactly the same as this, but is made by Obolon in Ukraine. Pours clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is grain and herbal hop with a whiff of butter. Taste is medium sweet, grain, herbal. Light bitter finish. Light bodied. Rather unpleasant, but another Armenian rate, which is always good.
