Comes in a tall long neck half liter brown bottle with a dark label featuring a portrait of some guy who looks like Bismarck holding a pils glass by the base. Rice and sugar are ingredients. Best before 2/14/04, I opened it on 11/9/03. The name is Russian for "Bohemian", and the back label includes a poem, roughly translated as:
At the time of a Bohemian banquet
For a gypsy's feast
The smell of hops, the taste of wine
Would be a sin not to go bottom's up!
Pours a cloudy gold with a very thin white head that dissipates very quickly. The nose is sour, with hints of grape. The mouth is very prickly and medium-bodied. The taste opens with sweet malt and alcohol, chased by a bit of harsh hops. There is a touch of bad wine here, rather like Mad Dog 20/20. If you like Russian strong beers, this is not a bad one. I don't, so wasn't very impressed.
