Another malt liquor from Tartu, stonger and worse than its little brother Bock.

Very pale, with low carbonation level and short-living bubbly head.

Smell sweetish, synthetic, suitable for shampoo or dish-washing detergent.

Taste on the sweet side, synthetic again. Body big but unpleasant. Aftertaste bitter-sweet, though the bitterness isn't hoppy. Should I call it 'medicinal'? Don't know. One thing I know for sure: Estonian brewers are capable of doing things much better than this one.

The colour is clear yellow, some white foam that disappears quickly.

The smell is chemical/artificial with some sweet notes of wheat flour.

The carbonation is medium strong with some medium sized bubbles. Nothing special.

The taste is somewhat sweet with a note of synthetic honey. There are lots of rather anonymous malts and a touch of marzipan. The aftertaste is short with some bitterness and sharp sweetness.

This is a quite strong lager with no traces of alcohol. In fact, there is not much of anything else than 10% abv here. Boooring!
