Pours a kind of murky light yellow. Head is very soapy looking. Not much aroma but you do get some skunk that you would expect. Flavor is light but not offensive. Slight malts and hops rescue this one. Again its not offensive but nothing really great either.

Thanks to Darkover for the trade. From Lithuania + green bottle sounds like a recipe for disaster but this wasn’t too bad. Pours a rather cloudy yellow color with a very thick white head that lasted pretty much the entire glass. Thin foamy lacing. The aroma is mildly skunked, with a light hops presence. Light-bodied and bland overall. There is some citrusy hops present but it tastes watered down overall. There is an underlying sweetness as well which is decent. The finish is dry with soft bitterness. This beer doesn’t have much to offer but overall it isn’t terrible.

Golden-brown colour. Aroma of golden sugar, cinnamon toast. Mild-tasting, with some spiciness and late alcohol. Finish is fizzy, sweet, and slightly minerally.

Golden colour. Noble hop aroma with some cookie dough malts. Crisp, medium-light body. Hay-like hop notes. Quickish finish. Malt backbone noted - another "almost pilsner".

Fiery reddish-brown colour. No head. Rich toffeeish aroma. Very sweet flavour - chewy toffeeish malts. They carry enough crystal malt earthiness and are extracted well enough to provide balance. Sweet, slightly smokey finish.

Bottled. Golden colour, average head. Fruity toffee aroma. Sweet and potent with rounded mouthfeel. A bit sugary. Alcohol is well hidden, and there is no obvious flaws.

Bottled. Clear pale golden, brief head. Dryish and sweaty with rounded mellow mouthfeel and lingering bitter finish. One of the more bitter Lithuanian beers.

Bottled. Copper colour, near no head. Fruity toffee aroma with a little bit of apples. Potent and very sweet with crystal malt character and clean, sugary mouthfeel. A touch of grassy hops among the sugar in the finish.

Nut brown. Tanned small head. Sweet malty aroma. Good smooth palate: sweet, slightly alcoholic. Some prunes like in Belgian ales. Hides alcohol quite well and finishing short.
