The natural fortress of this type appears because of the larger than in usual beer, holding time. In the old times in order to prepare a good strong beer, it left to mature by several months. But for the separately solemn cases - and to half a year. Time - the same necessary ingredient for the preparation of beer "gold barrel sustained" as selected malt, fragrant hop and pure water. Ripening of beer - most important part of the process of its preparation. Contemporary technologies make it possible to prepare beer for several days. But nevertheless the actions of time will replace nothing. The strong type of "gold barrel" is maintained in the special reservoirs at a constant minus temperature - 2,5° C. Optimum temperature conditions strictly is checked, because on the stability of cold directly depends taste and the quality of this splendid beverage. The uniqueness of type "gold barrel sustained" in the fact that the time of its ripening is two times more than it is quality in usual, and precisely "dual hardening" reports to this beer unique taste, transparency and astringency.

Aroma: 4 | Appearance: 4 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 6 | Overall: 6
Clear redish copper with quickly dissapearing light brown foam head. Aroma is almost non existing, barley. Taste is OK, barley, some caramel, some hay. Little bitter aftertaste. (Moscow 201401)

Very nice reddish copper color, not much foam though. Aroma has a little bit caramel and sweetness in it, really good and round aroma. Taste though is a little bit sour and bitterish with hops. Aftertaste is nice and refreshing.

This brew will end my tour of this Russian brewery and this one is the most complex of the three and the strongest. Aroma is of bready malt and baked bread with some faints aromas of burnt and weak caramel. Appearance is a nice and deep reddish-amber firey orange with a head on top that is full-bodied and light-tan in color and remains throughout consumption and is creamy and frothy. Mouthfeel is a bit complex but cloying and has a palate that is wet-like but thin. Flavor is metallic to some extent and very sweet and astringent with some faint maltiness and breadiness but just seems to be a mess here and has an aftertaste that is grainy and decently smooth with a finish that is bready and malty. Overall, not a very good attempt here and I am not too impressed; something just seems to be not right with this one...

In short, this looks really interesting -- and then falls apart by the time it's going down your throat....
Burnt amberish in appearence, and again, another beer from this brewery that has a fair amount of foam on top, and lots of interesting lacing.
But the rather nuetral nose hints at the rather indifferent profile I can expect from this beer.
Immediately reminded me of some of the bigger maltier offerings from Mendocino Brewing here on the West Coast. That is to say, all the makings of an interesting beer are here and ready to go. But the actual execution seems quite lacking.
Basically, the malt and hops seem quite discombobulated. That is to say, it's all mish-mashed together, and nothing really works in the final analysis.
Cloyingly sweet malt + odd hops + too much warmth in the finish = a beer I really could do without.
I suppose I could tough it out, and power through the rest of my glassful of this..., but really, with my current "reduced beer" diet, why would I want to waste time and energy with this one? Down the drain you go, comrade...
