Maersk (433) - MOLDOVA - AUG 11, 2016Clear dark golden. Thick medium head. Sour aroma along with some smoke. Solid body, smoked bacon in the taste, malty accent. No sharp edges, (unless smokiness is about phenols). A bit dull, but drinkable.
marcnow (105) - Pszczyna, POLAND - APR 29, 2016ladna butelka. Napisane ze kraftowe piwo - to dziwne bo z browaru lidskoie :D
kolor bursztynowy, przezroczyste, piany nie ma wiec na kuflu nic sie nie osadzi. No i pachnie whisky. Ja sadze ze to dziala na plus.
Ciala raczej malo i tak jakos nic specjalnego w ustach nie ma.
tak teraz mysle ze niby zapach whisky ale wlasnie chyba troche to przeszkadza. bo whisky sie nie pije jak piwo....
Marduk (15939) - Reval, ESTONIA - FEB 29, 2016500ml bottle (thanks Alex G.). Clear amber color. Small size, beige head, stays. Faint smokiness, very old sausages, sweet in aroma. Ohhohhoooohoooo!!! Fckin Hell!? Chemicals in taste. So strong menthol in aftertaste. Poor imitation of fuckin I even don’t know what- barrel aged vodka+food flavoring? No no no! Never again!
FatPhil (22608) - Tallinn, ESTONIA - FEB 27, 2016500ml bottle - trade with Alex G - thanks!
Totally messed up aroma, I get menthol and solvents, then dirt, burnt plastic, and butter. Rich caramelly orange, brief frothy head. Hard to get into my mouth, I recoil when it’s near my face. Very stale malty taste, some sickly solventy aspects. Very papery. Tons of fake coconut on swallowing. Coconut as in a horrible fake woodiness from nasty fake whiskies from soviet days of yore. Menthol back in the finish. Total monstrosity of a beer. I’d love to slap a BrewDog label on the front of this and see what idiots gave it. That’s not fair to Brewdog, as this is macro levels of craftiness, not just sincere kraftiness.
YantarCoast (3620) - Moscow, RUSSIA - DEC 26, 2015500ml bottle. Pours clear gold with a small white head. Aroma of faux whiskey, smoke and vinegar. Taste is whiskey and sweet, weak lager. It seems more like a cocktail/alcopop than a beer, although it’s better than Tuborg’s Russian-brewed "whiskey beer" effort (Tuborg Boilermaker).
vinivini (7486) - Homiel, BELARUS - DEC 4, 2015Light amber, short head instantly fading. No lacing. Smells of artificial whiskey, apple cider, some smoke. Light to medium body. The flavour mostly duplicates the nose. Low bitterness. A really strange one.

Tony_Grayne (648) - Minsk, BELARUS - DEC 4, 2015500 ml bottle. Pale clear amber colour. Standard white head. Aroma: soupy, some perfume, apple cider. Taste: average lager, cookies on the palate. Light body. What a shame.
alex_leit (13033) - Minsk, BELARUS - NOV 29, 2015Bottle 500 ml. Deep golden color with weak foam. Aroma: apple notes, like cider, a little smoke and peat. Taste: slightly smoke, a bit fruitу and sweet malt, apples, a little perfume. Joylessly.
