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!

BOTTLE 75 CL from artemb. Pretty much pure concentrated cherry juice - not much else. Sweet as hell. Behind all this sticky mess, one can get a light bitterness of an unidentified origin. Hey, where’s the beer?

Bouteille 50cl de Tomaz, BB 14/07/2014, thanks for hauling this one back from Russia. Orangée sur un léger trouble, col épais et crémeux blanc-cassé. Arôme est léger au niveau des houblons, le tout restant assez noble, je peine à percevoir le caractère de l’Amarillo, et je note plus un léger rétro d’agrumes. Palais est houblonné assez agréable même avec cette date avancée. Je note tout de même que la levure commence à prendre des notes de vieux. Profil général reste noble et sec avec une certaine insistance sur le grains rappelant plus l’épeautre voire le sarrasin. L’amérisant arrive péniblement à se faire présent avec en retrait un léger côté houblonné US - agrumes mais surtout très anglais pour le fini.

As Red Ale, a surprising, accidental find by Karlo at Pivni Galerie, thanks for sharing! Darker orange-amber body, not that red. Candyish, slightly herbal yet yeasty aroma. Not too yeasty in the aroma, but more so in the taste. Sweetish taste, slightly herbal again, but with notes of beets too. No bitterness. Not thrilling but more or less passable. For 30ish crowns, a relatively good choice.

500ml bottle from local bottle shop. Pours black with a minimal tan head. Aroma is coffee and some roastiness. Dominating flavour is coffee, besides that there's some smokiness. If you can get past the sourness this is a nice beer.

Bottle at the beer dudes gathering at Appellation Wines Comely Bank thanks to Onkelgobber. Appearance - cloudy orange with a frothy head. Nose - apples grapes and biscuits in the background. Taste - tangy bitter apples then bread. Palate - light to medium bodied with a tangy texture and a long dry finish. Overall - this fits the style of English pale ale most closely.

Bottle, tasting at Appellation Wines. Hazy golden body with a massive off-white head. Great lacing. Aroma of grass, green apple and Lager. Flavour of biscuit and white bread. Medium body with an oily texture. Very faint carbonation. Dull and not hoppy enough for an IPA.

Bottle sample at a tasting at Alexey and Refaela’s place. Thanks Stas. Dark brown to black with a beige head. Sourish aroma with a bit of olives, some roast and a coffee note. Sourish and fruity flavor with some roastiness. Medium-bodied. Seems off.
