Obolon tend to make some of the worst Ukrainian beers, but at least they are better than Opilia. This totally hides that it is Ukrainian or made by Obolon, and kind of looks Canadian from the red leaf, which may or may not be a maple leaf. And 4%? Seriously? From my experience beers that try to hide their origin are usually terrible. But let's see how this is. Italian DOP wines however are usually always good. Fairly standard lager ingredients.

Aroma from the can isn't good. From the glass after pouring, it's very sweet and syrupy. Head goes down after about 3 seconds. I'm not looking forward to trying it.

Tastes like paint or cleaning chemicals. Totally undrinkable. Going down the sink, and it is a long time since I poured beer down the sink. No wonder they try to hide the country of origin, and they write the actual Ukrainian makers in the small print.
