Presentation: Poured from a 500ml clear bottle into a standard Shaker pint. My mother in law got this for me in a pack of beers from around the world. Label is foiled blue, gold, and white. No freshness date.

Appearance: Pours with 1 finger of pure white head. This settles to a thin layer of foam and eventually to nothing. The beer itself is bright yellow and perfectly clear with moderate activity. No sediment in the bottle.

Smell: Sweet malt with hints of lemon grassiness.

Taste: Very sweet malt upfront with a very slight citrusy finish. Long lingering sweetness in the finish, no bitterness.

Mouthfeel: Average carbonation level. Body is good.

Drinkability: Not too bad. An easy drinking beer, mainly because of its relatively across the board lack of anything too strong or stand out, Probably won't revisit again.

From Combini. In Bavaria glass. Playing Day of the Tentacle Remastered. Pretty bland and watery. Taste isnt disgusting, a bit on the sweeter side with some grassy notes, but seems than in big quantities will tire soon

I was able to procure this Lithuanian beer from Friar Tuck's in Savoy, Illinois. Pours pure clear yellow, with a two finger head, above average carbonation, and little lacings. It has a malty taste, with notes of lactose, rice, and grains. It is not filling, has no bite, no edge, has a malty after taste, and goes down easy.

A real disappointment for Lithuanian Beer

A-Looks perfect in a beer stein, beautiful gold color nice tight head
S-Not much going on, generic beer smell, like miller or bud
T- Pretty bad, bitter in a harsh way but not at all hoppy, like yeast bite or a bad funky bitterness. Malt was really lost by this off flavor
M-Acceptable, light bodied with high carbonation
O-One to avoid

Utenos has a thick, white, soapy head, a clear, yellow-golden appearance, and no lacing left behind. The aroma is of sweet grain and some odd black pepper smell. Taste is of sweet malt, white corn, unusual bitterness, corn starch, and some other resin-like undertaste. Mouthfeel is light and watery, and Utenos finishes semi-dry, unpleasantly bitter, and somewhat harsh. Overall, this is inferior to, say, Keystone Premium, for example, so I would score it low average. Avoid it, or try it just to see what I mean.
