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!

Dark brown to black, almost no beige head. Weak fruity yeasty and not too appealing aroma. Taste is sweet dark fruits and a bit roasted malts with a tiny amount of acidity. Medium bodied. For Russia a decent Dubbel, otherwise not much.

Very nice deep ruby red color, no head whatsoever. Aroma is completely dominated by cherry syrup. Taste is extremely sweet cherry, some candy like caramel. Medium bodied and very syrupy. Too much cherry syrup I’d say.

Dark brown, almost black, weak non lasting head. Aroma roasted, black malt and coffee. Taste has some sweet chocolate and caramel with constant roasted malt background and a burnt toast with coffee dry finish with somewhat lasting aftertaste. Medium bodied and a bit creamy. Actually very nice and I like it. This is my 3rd bottle and the first one was spoiled and mostly sour, second was somewhere in between. This one has no notable sourness nor acidity of roasted malts so it depends on the bottle I guess. All brews from this brewery have this problem it would seem. A shame since they are so far away from most Russian brews if there were no spoilage...

cloudy amber, small white head. aroma sweet sugar, coriander, spicey, citrusy but sour background. taste starts sweet sugar/caramel biscuit through coriander and citrus but turns quite sour very quickly and the finish is a mix of sweet’n’sour spices. med+ body. Guess this one also depends on the brew as do other brands from Vasileostrovskaya. Without the unpleasant sourness it would be a good beer.
