Baltika - CoolerThis is a Russian beer I picked up in, of all places, Indiana. The unusual bottle cap drew me in as all I wanted to do was pull that tab off. I finally got to tonight. The clear golden color, and the bottle, show that this is lager. The aroma is a bit sweet, smells like stale college beer. The taste is light, watery, and barely a beer at all. Their website was one of the more shocking sites as after choosing brand, I was welcome by a woman with a wet shirt on. That is one way to market beer. The site goes on to show ingredients, brewing locations, inital wort concentration, and that the beer has no less than 4.7% ABV. I wouldn’t suggest having one, have like 30, because you can’t taste it anyways.

Specs: 16.9oz bottle
No less than 4.7% ABV
