Cool bottle design with Ukrainian colours...it seems to be Limited Edition...not sure if it is a pilsner or helles as I don't understand much from the bottle and the writing is mega small, and in Ukrainian.

Looks great, creamy and smooth head that stays for ages. Aroma is mega refreshing, with some sweet fruits...I am detecting lychee, vanilla and tangerine.

Totally different hops from a usual pilsner. I guess this is possibly more of a Helles. Taste is very bready, and this breadiness is complemented with a multitude of other flavours. Feel is a little on the thin side, and because of this, it tastes best straight from the bottle, as this adds some more effervescence. Every sip tastes slightly different. There is honey, marzipan, a little lychee, maybe mandarin. It's quite unique..light, it tastes quite exotic almost. It has so many elements yet together they all somehow work together. Nothing dominates, and the hops are kind of subtle.

Overall it's not amazing, it is just kind of unique and has a real abundance of flavours, and would be great in summer for sure.
