500 ml bottle. From Tallinn, Estonia. Dark copper colour with small tan head. Some malt, dried fruits and some butter in aroma. Sweet caramel and syrup, nuts, malts and some hints of alcohol. Decent Dark Lager.

Whew getting through all these Baltika beers was a chore. This one pours a copper color wtih an off white head. Aroma of oxidized apples, break, yeast, malt, hops and some odd grainy aroma. Flavor is also very grainy and malty. Hardly any hops. Odd beer to be honest.

Bottle. Poured a brownish copper color with a short lived tan head. Aroma of sweet malt, cookie dough, raisins and sugar. Flavor was surprisingly decent. Syrupy and sweet, with a lot of dough and fruitiness. Not really sophisticated, but solid and enjoyable enough.

(bottle - 500 ml) Copper pour with a creamy off-white head. Aroma is sweet and malty with some hints of raisins and cookie dough. Flavor is sweet and malty at the beginning with a good hint of dough and raisins near the middle. Finishes sweet with some hints of apple skins. Alcohol warms. Quite a nice beer.

Clear dark copper color, tan head. Roasted and vinous scent, nice. Sweet, raissin, vinous, roasted taste. Medium mouthfeel, medium bitterness.

Beautiful red-hued orange-amber beer with a thick tan head that flattens out after a few tastes. Intriguing aroma of aged malt, cider-wood, caramel, and yeast. Musty, but appealing. Strong caramel malt component, with dashes of sawdust, and cider. Sharp-chocolate toffee gives a last filip to the palate with a soft burnt caramel sugar bitterness lingering.

Murky chestnut with a thin tan head that dissipates into a layer of pond scum. Aroma of caramel, toffee and rye. Taste of caramel and toffee with mild dark fruits and a grainy texture. There’s an artificial sweetness to this one that is kind of off putting and something resembling soy sauce as well.

Bottle - light brown with an off white head. Aroma was burnt toffee. Underlying sweetness which I wasn’t keen on. No aftertaste.
