Abv: 5.1% Type: Premium Lager Bottle size: 500ml Country: Russia Brewery : Baltika Brewery
Price:  Reviewed in: Beers of the World Issue 7
Nose : Spicy, with light malt. There’s a hint of bubblegum, too.
Palate : A lightly nutty malt-and-hop mix, with herbal hop notes. Pleasantly bitter and just a touch warming.
Finish : Dry, softly bitter and a little thick. Hops build nicely.
Comments : A well-balanced if not very exciting strong lager from Russia’s biggest brewery. All the Baltika beers are numbered (no. 6 is a porter and no. 8 is a wheat beer).
Score : 7.25
