Commercial Description:
(Translation from Russian):
The special harmonious combination of hop bitterness and malt aroma gives the pleasant clean taste to this beer. Heavy and strong, it is brewed with the addition of rice, which gives to the beer the pale-straw color, characteristic for its elite quality.

Bottle... Lightly hazed golden lager with a small, wispy, then creamy, white head. Excellent retention. Lactic, beefy and biscuity aroma. Fairly well-balanced flavor; medium sweetness and moderate, metallic bitterness. Medium-bodied with medium carbonation. Lengthy, bitter-sweet finish.

Earthy aroma. Cloudy honey gold pour with ample foamy white head. Grain and honey in the body with a grainy burn on the way down.

Interesting bottle, created using some non-Euclidean geometry. The beer? Not too bad. Nice golden body, carbonated, but bereft of head. The aroma is of fresh bread with a covering of herbal hops. The flavor is a sweet, grainy taste with perhaps just a touch of corn. It finished on a sweet note garnished with a dash of hop bitterness. Drinkable.

I drank this beer (pivo) with my dad with red beans and rice he’d made us. The bottle was very strange because it had sides to it, as if to form some geometrical shape. The taste was of wheat and...corn? Too much on the corn though, but a pleasant blend of spices is present. Enjoyable, but a bit unbalanced and overly aggressive.

Cloudy golden color with a very small dense milk colored head. Side of glasses is fully covered with bubbles. Bread and grains dominate the aromas with a touch of herbal hops. Decent malt and light vanilla flavors in the start, which suddenly take a turn and head down the slope out of bounds. Dry flowers and herbs seem to take over and both dry out the mouth and makes my face wince. To assertive in the finish otherwise not a bad brew.
