Beers of the World country 119: Azerbaijan 🇦🇿

"The beer is clear golden in colour with a nice foamy white head. It tastes malty and bitter before it finishes off more sweet. Very short on the aftertaste, and hard to tell it apart from other commercial lagers." - beersoftheworldproject.wordpress.com

Kindly presented by Yantarcoast. Thanks a lot. Clear gold. Small fizzy head. Aroma: clean grainy malts, some malt sweetness. Light to medium body. Taste: clean, malty, minorly fruity. Low bitterness. Reminded me of a middle-of-the-road German helles.

500ml bottle. Azerbaijan-brewed version. Pours clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is straw, skunk, malt. Taste is light bitter, dank grain, herbal hoppiness. It’s not THAT bad.

500ml bottle. Pours clear gold with a small white head. Aroma is skunk, grain, cooked vegetables. Taste is grainy, skunked, and watery. 3.6% “export” beer. Right...

Shared 450 ml can at local tasting. Clear golden colour, white head. Sweetish perfumed aroma, hints of artificial candy and chemical waste. The flavour is slightly better, rather neutral pale lager, but not much to write home about.

Shared can at RB/HD on board Fridtjofen 12.04.18. Clear pale golden. Diminishing bright white head. Aroma of both toilet refreshener and unrefreshed pissoir, as well as citrus candy. Taste of citrus candy and sorrel. Meh!

0,45 boks delt på RBHD-treff ombord på Fridtjofen, april-18: klar lys gylden med fint hvitt skum. Lys malt og frisk citrus i aroma og smak. Slank og lettdrikkelig, men minner for mye om bruspulver og annet kunstig sukkertøy. Etter hvert fikk den en flat munnfølelse.

Very fresh 500ml bottle. Pours clear gold with a medium-sized white head that fades in a couple of seconds. Aroma is grain, grass. Taste is light sweet, malt, a bit skunky, grain, light bitterness. Very drinkable and pretty decent. Reminds me of Baltika 7.
