look: 2.5 | smell: 2 | taste: 2 | feel: 2.5 | overall: 2.5
Slightly hazy golden-straw colour. Aroma of hay, alcohol, faint crabapple, random yeast notes. Watery, grassy, lightly grainy taste. Clean but bland, especially in the finish. A brief wheaty yeasty appearance of flavor, but generally a tonic and flavorless.

500mL undated bottle poured into a nonic pint glass at fridge temp 5.2% ABV. The beer pours barely hazy light amber with off white head. The head recedes to a thin ring and some splotchy islands. The aroma is mild with pale malt and grassy & floral hops. The taste is semisweet pale malt with lingering sweetness, some grassy & floral notes and a little diacetyl & cardboard. Mild bitterness. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with average carbonation and a mostly dry finish. Just enough buttery microwave popcorn to note if you're looking for it. Overall, ok. I bought it for a Ukrainian tick and it's drinkable, but not something to track down.

Nice looking beer, clear, yellow to slightly amber color with a pristine thin white head. Good body, too. Unfortunately, the aroma and taste are very skunky, making me think it might’ve actually been a decent beer at one point in time, but perhaps wasn’t stored or transported properly, like it got too warm for too long. Came in a green 500 mL bottle, maybe being in a green bottle had something to do with it.

Poured from a 500ml bottle. Thin white head dissipated quickly. It has the aromas of sweet grain and bread. The taste reminds me of my childhood, stealing sips of my father's Kruger. Overall an average euro-lager.

Straw colored w foamy white head that stick around better than most Obolon offerings. Smells of malt and cereals. Tastes like salty dough, corn, bitter finish that lingers in the palate for a long time.

Bottle from Mix Markt in Kaiserslautern. Very malty and dry lager. Extremely dry finish. Clear golden color with fine carbonation supporting a silky head.
