Beer 76 - Baltika Breweries No 4 Dark Lager

September 23, 2010, Beer 76
Baltika Breweries No 4 Dark Lager
Brewed in St Petersburg, Russia bought at Specs Liquor, Houston drunk at home in Pearland while waiting for a Digiorno cheese pizza doctored with turkey, red pepper and mushrooms to cook.
An interesting, different kind of beer, the initial taste is slightly sweet with the taste of root beer in the background and no hoppy bite at all. It could almost be root beer with a kick (5.6% alc/vol). There is an aftertaste that is sweet and not unpleasant.
