Bottle, from Poland. [thank you, Aga]
Pours a very pale golden with a slight haze. Small frothy white head. Powerful citric fruity aroma, some apples and lots of coriander. A bit hin mouthfeel. Very spicy dry mouthfeel. Lots of coriander mixing with a slight malty backbone. Quite refreshing, but a touch unbalanced.

Small white head, hazy yellow body. Mealy, yeasty, citric aroma. Taste is citric and spicy, with coriander and flour notes. A bit watery. Dry, almost tart aftertaste. (0.5l bottle.)

[Sampled from can, in Ukraine] Pale hazy yellow. Fresh, citrusy nose, with notes of ginger. Dry in flavour, soft mouthfeel and very light. Long, big flavour.

Bottle, 500ml. Pours with no head to mention. The colour is strange, Fanta or Jaffa if you know what that is. A bit more opaque, though. The arome is remarcably close to a strong lager. DAngerous to spill on the keyboard. The flavours are there, reminding of wheat, orange and perfume, but they are not that strong. And they evenetually evolve into a horrific aftertaste which feels like dirt left on the bottom of the flask. A bit disappointing.
