500 mL bottle. Yellow. Active head disappears almost instantly. Weak grassy/malty aroma. Very heavily carbonated. Thin/metallic mouthfeel. Crisp. Not much taste. Corn. Aftertaste is distinctive for having no taste. Hope they have something else to drink over there.

Can. Pours pale golden, topped by a dense white head. Very weak aroma with malt, grain and some hops. Weak flavor too, with malt and hops. Thin body and a finish with some floral notes. Boooring. (060824)

Golden pour with a soapy head. Strong scent with lots of hops and some caramel. Tons of flavour in this one, very sweet caramels with friuts or berries. Odd tart aftertaste that sticks to the tongue. The swetness in this is way overpowering and really kills this beer. Overcarbonation adds to the displeasure.

Nice beer; it’s everywhere in Estonia. Slight hops notes, not alcoholic, somewhat dry finish. Refreshing, not bad.

Bottle. Very light yellow in colour, very quickly dissipating white head. The aroma is sweet, grainy malts, some corn. The flavour was a carbon copy of the aroma, bitter mouthfeel, light body, medium carbonation. Finishes quick and thin.
