Description
«Василеостровская Пивоварня» - одна из старейших частных пивоварен г. Санкт-Петербурга. История началась с любви к пиву, когда в 2002 году мы решили сварить вкусное пиво, отличное от того, что по тем временам было представлено в магазинах.

Таким образом, на Васильевском Острове на свет появился наш первый сорт – «ВАСИЛЕОСТРОВСКОЕ Домашнее». Сваренный однажды для единственного ресторана сорт, настолько пришёлся по вкусу публике, что это положило начало нашей истории, длиной в десятилетия!

Some shoppe in Russia: pours slightly hazy orange with little head. Aroma is juniper, lime, spice. Taste is slightly tart. Sweet and very mellow. Very little bit of hops. I do not think that this is a tripel, but it is really not bad. Interesting enough to drank.

500ml bottle from apivo.ru. Pours orange with a medium-sized white head. Citrus and pine aroma. Not so great sourish taste. Harsh bitterness in the finish. My least-favourite Russian IPA so far. --- Beer merged from original tick of Bengal IPA on 12 Aug 2015 at 12:16 - Score: Appearance - 6 | Aroma - 5 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 5.5. Original review text: 500ml bottle from Bochka in Moscow. Pours orange with a medium off-white head. Aroma is spicy and citrusy. Taste is citrus, malt. Finish is bitter, but harsh. There's something about Vasileostrovskoe IPAs that I don't like.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Ariel’s place. Thanks Ariel’s friend! Clear amber. Aroma of malt, a bit of caramel, hops, slightly citric and slightly skunky. Sweetish flavor with malt, a bit of caramel, a toasty hint, and bitterish hops, a bit citric. Medium-bodied. Easy-drinking.
