Style: Pale Lager
Biržu raj., Lithuania

Bottle at my 1000 Rates Celebratory tasting, 8th Jan 09, courtesy of tashi (Dave). Time for the Eastern European horrors part of the evening... Very pale yellow, with weak flavours and palate. Yellowed water with a salty peanut aroma. Mmm, if they go a bit further in this direction they’ll be sued for copying Bud Light.

A Mes rate. Another one I have to thank Dave for, although I’m not sure if thanks is the right word. Pale yellow with a thin white head. Smells of salted peanut sick. Really, I’m struggling to sniff at it. Tastes if harsh corn with metal for afters. Really not good. Ok, I have had worse, but not many...

Bottled:
Burning aroma, grainy, light sweetness. Pale golden color. Grainy flavor, light swwetness but light bodied. Bitter mettalic and dry finish.

Fine colour, nice aroma. Nice balance of hops. Fine beer, but not too good.

Golden colour, lightly sparkling. Deep noble hops in the nose. Bready malts on the palate with underlying farm-like hops. Pils light, all right.

Sampled draught at Biržai Beer Festival.
Pale golden, clear. Hoppy nose. Fairly dry and lightly fruity. Medium bodied with medium bitterness. Pretty good, but not too special.
