Feb 8, 2004 Nice straw color,small white head that had a nice long hang time.The aroma was Malty sweet aroma with maybe a hint of fruit and caramel.The taste was Quite good with a flavor of sweet malt fruit and mild hops maybe a hint of corn but it's quite hard to detect.Its a very thirst quenching brew that kind of makes you want another.Well worth trying and IMO one of the finer tasting brews that i've found from this country.

Dec 5, 2008 Golden yellow with a bubly white head. Slightly skunky smell. I was surprised. This was actually a pretty good beer and it only cost $2.39 at the neighborhood specialty liquor store. It almost tasted like a very light pilsner.

Nov 27, 2003 After suffering through Yarpivo's Strong, Ice, Dark and Premium, I suspected they had a style for me and this is it. I have no idea what Yantarnoye means (tasty? refreshing?) but this lager stands head and shoulders above Yarpivo's other dreck, er... output. Yes, the alcohol shows through even thought it's only 5.3%. Yes, the head retention is lacking, but cut them some slack - they're Russian. This is, after all, a flavorful, sweet caramel malty lager with some herbal notes.

Aug 14, 2003 Contains rice. Color is amber, as its name suggests. Light thin head. Aroma of caramel and fruits (apricots?). Malty taste with light bitterness. Easy drinkable standard lager.

Jul 16, 2003 Malt, licorice aroma. Tinny golden ale flavor. Light hopping, sweetish and somewhat tart. Finings-type gel mouthfeel. Very clear gold, seafoam head. Medium short finish. 'Yantarnoye' apparently means 'amber' but this is just plain lager colored.
