Feb 24, 2008 Pale golden, thin white head. The aroma is initially quite skunky but this settles down to leave a light herbal hoppiness over very light pale malts. Very thin body. Not nearly as sweet as many non-alcs as I’ve had which is a good thing. It’s not a very good beer, but it’s really not as bad as many other pale lagers that are out there.

Jan 3, 2008 Thanks to ghawener. Drank it in El Flor. The best of all the Baltikas since it tasted the same and it is alcohol free!!

Jan 2, 2008 500ml can.
Light yellow, dodgy head. Sweet malty flowery aroma. Cornflakes in the taste. Frosties even. Slight lemonady direction too - quite shandylike. Not a real beer, but a fun summer drink after a long bike ride. One of the better low-alcohol drinks I’ve encountered.

Jan 2, 2008 Bottle: Nonoffensive N/A of all the Baltikas the one that I would buy again (as a designated driver).

Nov 29, 2007 Ok, it’s Russian, in a green bottle, and is non-alocholic. That’s three strikes.Why should I even bother? I guess I’m just the adventurous type. As expected it smells skunky, but some grains can be detected.. Yellow, with a thin head, some lacing. The balance isn’t half bad and it does have a little flavor. I taste rice and sugar. It doesn’t make me puke and that’s more than I expected. Heck, this might even break 2.0 if it was fresher.

Sep 22, 2007 Good head, medium rate of foam loss ... Some likeness to Heineken in Aroma (skunky) ... Lacing is quite exceptional ... taste is basically muddled and confusing, a bit metallic, corn ... Overall, A decent N/A but lacks a good taste and any assertiveness ... I would pass ...

Sep 2, 2007 Big white coarse head. Yellow body with carbonation. Mealy watery aroma with traces of grain and hops. Dry hoppy chalky taste with notes of water and grain. Some acidity. Harshish mouthfeel. No real aftertaste. Bland, but decent. (0.5l bottle, Robert Doms beer house, Lviv.)

Aug 4, 2007 Bottle. Pours a surprisingly lively and pleasing gold, like a nice autumn sunset in a glass. Aroma is the usual corn and grain, but not as offensive as other N/A beers. Flavor is like semi-stale Frosted Flakes, with a mixture of Corn Flakes added for filler. Sweet in a sugar-substitute way; not offensive, but not great. Watery mouthfeel. Not the worst N/A, but that’s like saying skin cancer isn’t the worst form of cancer; after all, it’s still cancer.
