Commercial Description:
This is also known as Zhiguly Beer in the USA and says Zhiguly Beer in ENGLISH. If it says Zhiguly in RUSSIAN, that is Zhiguly (Russian Label). It is light, pale lager beer which recipe depends on the list of essential ingredients as clear and treated water, pale malt, granulated hops, its extract has been produced by the main bottom – fermenting yeast. All ingredients are inspected and belong to the best quality. While Zigulinis is being brewed, it is not allowed to use any unusual brewing materials that could artificially increase beer. Zigulinis is a refreshing, hop – tasting, a little bitter, light wheat beer, passing through strict fermentation process. This beer is also characterized as a firm froth where carbonic acid comes off slowly by small bubbles.

Misty chartreuse. Sticky, dense alabaster foam. Single lined carbonation. Mild toasted white bread aroma, herbal hops and traces of hard water minerals. Boldly crisp and inviting but with a weak bready flavor. Fine herbal hop balance and bitterness. Fairly clean. Tastes adjunct free. Light body. Sharp texture. Bitterness overwhelms the timid sweetness. Finishes with metallic, mineral notes, traces of wet paper but a solid hop charge. Respectable.

Chewy following , hint of dough. Bitter but with out crispness and aromatic refreshing feel, weak malt base does not fulfill formula.

Bottle - Labeled as Zhiguly: A light yellow golden with a slight haze topped by a quickly fading white head. Odd papery esters in the nose. The flavor is extremely sweet, yet never seems corn syrupy or adjunct-like. There’s also a late grassy bitterness that saves it. Not altogether a failure.

Bottled. Golden yellowish in colour with a medium sized white head. Sweet and malty with notes of straw, metal, bread, alcohol and a somewhat fruity sweetness.

Bottled. A yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of straw, and so is the flavor. Nothing special.

Goldenish. Short bubbly white head. Aroma of some malt and grains. Weak flavour of malt, bit sweet with a slight hoppiness. Thin brew.
