This is the latest addition to the Tomskoye line. Comes in the standard brown half liter bottle. Ingredients conform to the purity law.

Pours a dark gold with a decent white head that sticks around for a bit, leaving a fair amount of lace. There's really not much nose to this one at all, while the mouth is of medium consistency and not too carbonated. The initial taste is very malty, but there's a hint of rusted metal and a bit of an unpleasant sour note. Some hops show themselves in the finish, but there's not much to the aftertaste. Given the hype this beer got in the Tomsk area, I would have expected more.
