Pours a light clear yellow with a chunky white head. Aroma is sour and corny. Flavor is sweet and stale with lots of burning alcohol. Finishes cloying and syrupy. Makes me sick to my stomach. Pretty nasty; a rare drain pour for me.

Sampled in Russia. Tastes much better when compared to the other beers available in Russia. Did you know that the only American beers available in Russia are Miller Genuine Draft and Budweiser? This is definatly better than those two. Kind of like a malt liquor. Marginally acceptable. Try it.

This beer was decent in a bottle, im sure it was rather old. Tasted heavy with much alcohol but it was nicer than normal thin light baltic beers. Packs a kick and comes in a pint.

Bottle. Don’t know how long I have had this one; thought it was just a pale lager, so had decent, rather than no expectations. Poured a clear, pale gold; carbonation streams. White head. Aroma of bread and sweet malt; a hint of herbal/medicinal aroma. Flavor was sweet, but beyond that very sugary; even in the mouthfeel. Very malty, little hops. Bready. About as one dimensional as you can get. Still not terrible, just something one should enjoy in extreme moderation.

50cl bottle. Nice clear gold-lots of bubbles and a sustaining head. sweet bready malt aroma, with a hint of plastic. Overwhelming synthetic sweetener taste. Ok. I’m going to go puke now. This is completely un-drinkable.

Bottle from BevMo Mission Valley. Poured a clear golden color ale with a big bubbly white head with average retention. Aroma of sweet malt with a dose of cough medicine. Taste is more enjoyable then I was expecting with a nice base of sweet malt, limited amount of corn or adjunct is detectable and then cough medicine appears at the end to ruin it all. Could have been worse but could have been a lot better.
