Clear yellow with small white foam ring. Aroma is like mass produced lager, so is taste. Just another beer and like most russian not the best there is in the world. (Moscow 201310)

Not much foam, but the color is quite nice and golden. Aroma is good bready and malty. Taste is a little bit metallic, but still refreshing and a bit sweet. Aftertaste is smooth and good.

Well, I had the lite lager version of beers from this brewery and decided to "step-it-up" so to speak and drink the pale lager; wow, what a step-up uh? All sarcasm aside; here is my review. Aroma is heavy with strong corny aromas as well as cloying sweetness with some slight metallic nuances to. Appearance is a darker, pale yellow when held to the light with a fuzzy, white head on top that turns to lacing. Mouthfeel is light with some slight malty complexity with no hop character with a palate that is wet-like. Flavor is of cereal malt and sweet on the tongue with some rice and metallic characteristics with an aftertaste that is crisp and clean and a finish that isn't all that bad. Overall, just another boring lager but better than the lite version and I am hoping the slight up trend in quality contines on into the final beer I have from this brewery; an amber lager.

Basic 500mL brown bottle, with vague impressions of the brewery logo etched in the glass between the main label and the neck. "Premium Quality Beer" and "Classic" are basically the only english descriptors of this beer. Three little medals on the bottom of the label, signifiying nothing to me....
First impressions:
Typical East European fizzy yellow/gold beer. Decent head and lacing. Sweet (corny?) aroma. Nothing suprising so far.
But then the first sip hits my mouth. Ugh. Not only too sweet, but what's up with the metallic tang? If I didn't know better, I would have guessed that this came from a cheap, unlined, third-world aluminum can -- yeah, it's *that* metal-ish (especially in the back-end). Yikes.
Something that I can still finish off. But for $1.99, definately nothing that I will return to any time soon.
And to think that I have a bigger/stronger brother of this beer (the Zolotaya Bochka Vyidyerzhanoye) in my `fridge waiting for after this one. Wow -- color me thrilled....
