Puls Extra Lager Eripruul Kuivhumalaga

Puls Extra Lager Eripruul Kuivhumalaga
Premium Lager
5.0%ABV50cl bottle.

Surprisingly fresh, summery aroma. Honey, fruit, fresh grass and whatnot. Really nice, bready, pale lager.


Pours clear golden with thin creamy head.Medium bitter, medium sweet. Hoppy for a local Estonian lager, and that is good.Smooth, medium bodied beer.


Only negative thing about it, is that it is just a bit too sweet.


Will buy again.


At the moment, this is a second best local mass produced beer for me.(Hard Lager from A. Le Coq is still slightly better.)

A. Le Coq Extra Lager

A. Le Coq Extra Lager
Pale lager
4.5%ABV

33cl bottle. BBE 18.01.15

This is a niche drink - there is always a market for alco-pops like that.
It is not bad, but grownups do not drink beer like this one. It resembles it, yes, but it is not quite right there.

Teenagers, who are finding their way to beer, usually start with a brew from a clear bottle. It is slightly hoppy/malty/fizzy water. If you start from something too dark or to bitter - you possibly won't love it.

Saku Humal & Oder Pilsner

Saku Humal & Oder Pilsner
Pale Lager
5%ABV

Saku Humal Oder Pilsner
33cl bottle. BBE08.10.14


Named as pilsener, but is not quite so (Saaz is more traditional choice for Czech Pilsener).

Pours pale golden, with a nice head, that stays for a long time. Creamy and kind a soapy.
Strong aroma of summer freshly cut grass and pines.
Gentle, medium bodied beer. Lively carbonation that supports the long lasting head (~10 minutes).
But, you have to drink it cold and quick - once the bubbles are gone (again, ~10 minutes), it turns in to a ordinary flat lager (as they all do).

Clean and simple. A good pale lager. As good as a nicely brewed batch of Saku Rock or Saku Hele.
