| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Nov 28, 2008 TN tasting at maniac’s. Very clear pale yellow pour with thin white head. Nose is skunk, that fades to a sweet vanilla. Sweet graininess. Medium floral bodyThe lightest hop on the finish. Not all that bad actually, I’d drink it in place of a budlight.

| 2.9 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 6/10 | 3/5 | 12/20 | Jul 19, 2009 Bottle from Sal’s Beverage World in Elmhurst, Illinois: It pours a clear yellow body filled with bubbles but capped by the slenderest of heads. The aroma is sweet grainy malt with light grassiness and a touch of mineral water. Take away the mineral water and you have the flavor. Not bad, nicely balanced, but I think it needs more hops. Of course, I say that when I’m drinking a DIPA. MaltDawg (778), Richmond, Virginia, USA
| 2.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Feb 5, 2009 Big Baltic grainy toasty aroma. Had a bit of skunk that dissipated quickly. Clear golden with small white head. Grainy papery flavor. I got something a bit metallic - very typical flavor and aroma profile for eastern European beers. Lots of graininess - honey nut cheerios. Light body and mouthfeel. Slightly sweet finish with very little hop profile. drpimento (883), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA
| 2.6 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Oct 4, 2009 Got this bottle a couple of weeks ago at Surdyk’s in Minneapolis. Poured with a decent, foamy, white head and no lace. Color is light amber. Aroma was real nice with good bitter hops and malt - solid beer. Flavor was much too sweet. Body and carbonation were ok. Mostly sweet finish with a little bitterness. GreatLibations (1454), Last Supper, Arizona, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 10/20 | Mar 5, 2008 Pours pale golden with a tall lasting froth. The head reduces to nothing. No lace at all. Aromas of malted herbs with a biscuit or two. Medium nectar with good carbonation. Dry, malty, grassy, decent bittering. A littl old-world in disposition. I wouldn’t be proud of this beer. Poor old Gediminas. ChainGangGuy (2616), Kennesaw, Georgia, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 8/20 | Sep 1, 2008 Appearance: Pours a clear, yellow body with a small, white head.
Smell: Pale malts with some floral hints and notes of honey and chicken broth.
Taste: Pale malts with a teensy weensy hint of grain and light, honeyish sweetness. Minimal hop presence, only a bit floral with a weak bitterness. Big sip of spring water. Drying, watery finish.
Mouthfeel: Light-bodied. Medium carbonation. It’s watery, I must say.
Drinkability: Contrary to the belief of the back label, I’m not so sure Gediminas, Grand Duchy of Lithuania would "applaud" this beer. I know I did not. I big step down after sampling the Baltika 5 and 7, and that’s saying alot! cbeers21 (589), Miami, Florida, USA
| 2.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 3/10 | 2/5 | 5/10 | 3/5 | 11/20 | Jul 17, 2008 Clear, gold, watery, little bit of life on the palate but pretty much forgettable.
