Summer beer. Yellow color, medium-sized white head. Malty aroma and taste. Refreshing, light bitterness in aftertaste. A good option at a seaside resort.

September 2006: RBESG 2006 Grand Tasting. Golden colour, low head. Weak industrial pale lager aroma and flavour. Pass. Not a beer I'd bother to buy again.

Straw gold and clean filtered, with lots of carbonation.
Smells of malts, molasses, and drying hay.
The taste follows the nose.
Light and crisp body with lots of carbonation.
I got this in Kazanlak, Bulgaria where i drank it at my hotel. For the style it was good.

I don't have much appreciation for Bulgarian lagers and this one is definitely one of the worst. Coming form Zagorka Brewery, I have an impression it's cheaper version of Zagorka beer, which itself quite bad. It has yellow color and not big head. Taste is poor and bitter. Wouldn't recommend this beer in any occasion.

This is the most popular beer in Bulgaria. However, it is the best lager beer in Bulgaria. This is the 'younger sister' of Zagorka. Can be found in all stores. There is a glass bottle, PVC bottle and aluminum cen. In some places can be found on taps. Good beer.
