500ml can from Yozh in Moscow. Pours opaque hazy orange with no head. Aroma is predominantly mint, followed by strawberries and some vanilla. Taste is light sweet followed by medium to heavy sour, tonnes more mint, strawberries and lime. Minty as hell. Strawberry toothpaste beer. Weird, but I loved it.

330ml can from TBS in Moscow. Aroma is smoked sausages, tomatoes, olives and lemons. Taste is medium salty, the aforementioned products, and a slightly spicy finish. Basically its cold, carbonated and over-salted Solyanka. Bizarre stuff, but I suppose it makes sense in a Russian context (they eat a lot of soup here). One can is enough for me.
