| 1.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 2/10 | 1/5 | 3/10 | 1/5 | 10/20 | Feb 6, 2009 Pops brought this home in a huge 51 oz. bottle. so we split it:) It poured a medium yellow, with 1 inch head, and it had a sweet aroma. Well, I did some research, I think it’s safe to say that this is the equivalent of a European malt liquor, with it’s sweetness, and high ABV. It was ok, but I don’t think I would get it again.

If I wanted malt liquor, I would’ve bought Schlitz. Also very, very sweet. Not very impressed. Sparky27 (1596), Phoenix, Arizona, USA

| 1.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 1/5 | 3/10 | 2/5 | 7/20 | Jan 18, 2009 Pours a clear very light gold color with the smallest amount of visible carbonation and a tiny white head. Aroma is almost as thin as the appearance. There is some malt and some honey. Flavor is malt, sugar, wood, and a good amount of alcohol. Charred wood and pepper bitterness. Too much malt sugar. No wonder Russians drink vodka.
