Oct 27, 2003 Ok I must be getting soft in my old age but I thought this beer was decent for an American Standard from Russia. Medium gold body clear body with a white rapidly diminshing head. Some lacig and the surpising part... it actually had some palate to it with a decent mouthfeel. Yes the corn was noticable as was the slight sweetness but the hoppy bitterness and crispness also was evident. Have another one comrade.

Sep 16, 2003 This Russian lager has a clear, copper-golden color with a thin, white head. Sweet aroma of malt and corn with a touch of hops. Light body and moderate carbonation with a smooth mouthfeel. The flavor is sweet and lagerish up front. The finish is crisp with some mild hop notes and a lingering sweetness. Not bad really, kinda sweet though.

Aug 11, 2003 Fairly standard lager in classic Soviet fashion: golden color, medium head, sweetish aroma and lightly fruity and malty taste. Hops? No, not here.

Feb 22, 2003 Updated: Jan 17, 2004Smells deceptively like a strong ale with a promise of spice. Slightly cloudy dirty yellow. Sweet with an unexpected alcohol finish. A certain peppery aftertaste. Not sure exactly what they were going for as it tastes like a mix of styles. Rather a weird mix for a pilsener.

Sep 8, 2002 Sweet and thirstquenching. Very nice and pleasant, compared to the other Soviet brews. Afanasiy seems a tad better than Botchkarev Brewing.
