Comes in a green 1/2 liter bottle with a dark green label featuring a big letter G. The label is mostly in Armenian, with some English, but I couldn't find any ingredient or freshness information.

Pours a clear medium gold under a short-lived one finger off-white head that generates surprisingly good lace strings. The nose is a bit harsh, mildly reminiscent of rusty cans and cabbage. The mouth is light and very prickly. All of the taste elements are mild, with just trace elements of malt evincing a hint of grain and sugar. The hops are also subdued, but pleasantly closer to spice than to metal. The aftertaste only emerges long after with swallow, with a shadow of bitter and dryness. Not a horrible brew, but it is pretty forgettable.
