Welcome back to my New Russo-Japanese-Vietnamese-Chinese CANned Beer Sunday, CANrades (Week 754) (С новым русским-日本人-Tiếng Việt-中文 Пиво воскресное, товарищи (неделя 754)!

I was in Brooklyn's Brighton Beach last Thursday. I really dig that area due to its eastern European vibe. I have self-taught myself to read Cyrillic & my tastes are quite European so the shopkeepers are often shocked when I inquire about Kvass & okroshka (a cold soup of greens & other veggies with chopped hard boiled eggs). Hee hee. I also managed to find some new CANs of beer for today,

From the CAN: "СВАРЕНО ПО ГОСТ"; "ОГРАНИЧЕННАЯ ПАРТИЯ".

I was once more CANfronted with a mere 0.45L slimline-CAN, precisely half of the monster CAN that I beCAN with today. I again had a blonde server who smiled at me while carrying a stein in each hand! I Crack!ed her vent open & let her free-flow into my awaiting stein. She was smiling the entire time, explaining that the earlier 0.9L doll was her older, bigger sister & that I was invited to supper later! 8=O She was careful not to overflow the lip of my proffered stein, foaming up nicely to form just over a finger of foamy, fizzy, soapy, bone-white head with decent retention. Color was Yellow-Gold (SRM = 4 - 5) with NE-quality clarity, about the shade of her pigtailed hair & now, boy howdy, did we have the attention of The Gelt Gang of Croesus, Midas & Mammon! Wow! She just CANtinued to smile as I inhaled deeply of her scent. She had a light cereal-like sweetness, malty without being terribly sweet, but definitely adjunct-free. Mouthfeel was thin-to-medium, about on par for any Lager. The taste, in addition to the aforementioned cereal maltiness, had a light bite of hops, just a kiss, but I was willing to acCANpony her home in the hopes of something more. Finish was in the Twilight Zone of semi-sweet to semi-dry. Here is my bottom line - I liked her older, bigger sister best, but she would fill the gaps in my cooler nicely. The Strong brunette was going to have to stay behind because I just CANnot take a ChANce on an incident on the beach! She just seemed like trouble waiting to happen. YMMV.
