500ml bottle
4.60% ABV
I tried this beer on May 8, 2008 after purchasing a couple of bottles from the Queens Quay LCBO outlet (one was given to lenusik). The beer poured a very pale golden yellow with a bubbly white head that quickly disappeared. The aroma was very sick grainy malt with a slight hoppy hint. The mouthfeel was medium bodied. The flavour was very grassy.

    Rerate 500 ml bottle, from a potential importer. ABV is 4.6%. Very pale yellow colour, large white head. Fairly strong sweetish and grassy aroma. The flavour is rather sweet, again with some grassy notes, and the bitterness is too moderate. Far from undrinkable, though.

    Light gold swill, almost no cap after dumping it out hard from the can. Skunky smell, grain, boring! Something...wait.. nothing good , nothing bad. Grainy taste, watery, hops, light spice standard crap. Tons of carbonation but not gassy. Dry Boring. Check mark Estonia.

    Light clear gold body with a small skiff floating on top. The stink of this beer is epic!!!! Rotten malts with dark not fresh apple bordering an skunky. Sweet barn yard yuck flavor with dark heavy flavored malts that finishes ungodly sweet. Flavour seems to be getting lighter the more I drink but yet its low quality Euroness is repulsive. I hate all of these appley skunk Euro lagers they all suck but this one’s is more skunky than most. I wish eastern Europe and Latin America would stop attempting to produce beer they don’t know how!!!!!

    I did not get anything out of this beer that I expected. The aroma was very vomit-like, not appealing at all. Very little colour. The flavour was quite weak as well, not an enjoyable beer at all.

    Don't drink much for numbers anymore, but this one was for a whole new country, Estonia. Well, it was indeed Estonian Budweiser and it was pretty poor in aroma and flavor: adjuncts, corn, metallic oxidation, more corn and grains. Mouthfeel was fully carbonated, but otherwise it drank like, well, nevermind. I'm always game for a new country, but I didn't beat up my liver finishing this one.

    Typical European styled lager. This one is quite golden and actually retains its lacing, which is nice for a change. Sweet aroma, heavy on the grains. Crisp body with active carbonation. Slight malt in the flavour, but mostly of other grains and minor hops, pilsner like. Sweet in its delivery as well. I liked this one more than most others in the style, although still not quite what I want in a beer. Good for hot days I would think.

    Bottle: Poured a golden yellow color lager with a bid bubbly white head with OK retention. Aroma of sweet malt with no discernable hops. Taste is refreshing but quite bland with some sweetness and subtle floral malt. By no mean it this a great beer but at least it is not full of brewing mistakes.

    I was suprised how much I liked this beer. Found this one very refreshing and it can easily compete with the usual pale lager's I drink. Tried it while i was smoking a cigar. Gave the cigar a sweet taste. Very good combo

    Bottled on Jan 18 2006. This poured a clear, light gold along with a whacking great foamy white head. The hopping was evident from the instant the cap came off. Taste, mouthfeel, and aftertaste were typical of a better-quality Euro-lagers. This was a nice beer to drink and I'd have it again.
