Bottled. Yellow colour, minor white head. Skunky nose and harsh hops. Flavour is salty, hoppy and very harsh. I wonder what toxic waste is used in this, and who it is made for... Only positive thing is the galliano-formed bottle.

Bottle 460 ml, bottled 07/2006. Yellow color, no head. Skunky aroma, some hints of diacetyl too. Starts a bit fruity malty, then strong flavor of cardboard. This neer is real awful. Storing it in clear bottle does not help. Either being candle shaped ...

Bottled(460ml). -clear white bottle that looks more like for a votka than for a beer, and what to say for content of 460ml. Something about beer; standard and boring russian lager, vain malty and faint fruity aroma, too sweet flavor, watery finish, I’ll remember this beer only because of odd bottle

6th DRG. Dark color, brown foam. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolat. Bitter taste, bit earthy. Some coffee in aftertaste. Good stuff from Russia!

Blonde colour. Aroma of bready malts, some cereal notes, slight grassiness. The medium body shows similar profile, slight mineral and a finish that turns more bitter and slightly saaz-y.

Rather heavy-handed cornfed lager. Some late hop, but it's not enough to save this one.

Bright orangey-dark amber colour. Lots of sugar on the nose. Caramelly malt-accented lager. Clean, with hints of darker things like toffee. Overall sweet but seems to also come through with occasional fits of astringency.
