May 31, 2005 History tells us that this beer was brewed for the Czars, and Czar Nicholas I in particular favored this recipe, so it is known by many as an Imperial Malt Liquor. Well, no. But the 8% really does start to hit you a bit. I had a few gulps of this before I started into a spicy guacamole quesadilla, and it was a good compliment to that food, giving a sweet adjunct edge to the grainy smoothness and moderate carbonation. Oh, and it’s yellow, pale yellow. Relatively easy drinking, and hey, it has that exotic Russian thing going for it. You can always try telling your friends about the amazing history of this beer with the Czars....

May 27, 2005 bottle. pours a clear yellow that is very much like a standard macro, but with a larger fluffed white head. smells of corn and pity.rough rotten plant matter taste that lingers with some garbage and 2 dollar whore vomitin the aftertaste. an odd tang resonates on my tongue like a nine volt battery was stuck to it. the sweetness that is inherent in this is just mauled by the disease like presence of the corn and alcohol . this is bad, even for a malt liquor this is bad. i don’t know why i hate myself so much, but i do, and i will drink thge whole damn bottle before i sleep. of course i might sleep because i drank the whole damn bottle. this is a bad beer.

May 9, 2005 Clear, light gold appearance with a white, average size head. Muted aroma dominated by vegatables. Slightly sweet taste with not much else going on in that department. Not skunked while chilled, but the last taste as it warmed a bit signaled trouble. Alcohol packed a bit of a punch as it finished. Fortunately, it was inexpensive.

May 6, 2005 Ya, I chose this for the high alcohol content and it definitely has an alcohol burn AND bite to it. Other than that, it was kinda skunked with some cron and rice ? flavors... nothing too exciting.
