Historical Community Tasting Notes
Preserved from the RateBeer community archive (circa 2000–2018)
Bottle in Yerevan. Dark golden with a white head. Medium sweet and pretty grainy. Not much bitterness, but a hint of alcohol in the finish. Definitely one best widely available pale lagers in Armenia. Usually there wasnt a huge selection available, but Kilikia is very common, followed by Kotayk Lager and different beers from Gyumri.
Bottle 33cl from an armenian shop, a golden amber beer with good head and lacing. Nose is malty and on caramel malt. Aroma is a bit disappointing, medium sweet with a watery finish, malt notes are medium to low with a wet paper like finish. Hops flavor are low, just latent bitterness, poor body for a strong lager.
A pale gold pour with a thin, soapy-looking head. The aroma has notes of straw, light grain, and a mild earthiness. The light body is as thin as water with soft carbonation. The taste is bland and flavorless.
