Trying to join the Kirov battalion. While I'm dealing with registration and other paperwork, I'm passing the time and keeping myself going in cheap pubs. Cynics might say that it's not about the battalion, but about the famous Kirov beer, "Vyatic."
Let's start with the fact that it really packs a punch. Absolutely any of it. Even the Vyatka kvass can make you feel tipsy, and the beer even more so. As for the varieties:
Elite.
"Imperial Aged." I don't know why it's called imperial, but it seems to be aged. A great Lager. Not bitter, not sweet, moderately strong – a kind of beer standard, tasty but not intrusive. Malty-honey, dense, you can drink it glass after glass and (almost) not get tired of it. Very good. 8.5/10.
Green 31.
Seems stronger, but tastes weaker. Floral-herbal, slightly sour, with a bread-hoppy finish. It might appeal to beer connoisseurs, but to me, it's a bit boring. But it's still cheaper and at the same time better than the average Euro lager, so it deserves a 7.5/10.

Unfiltered.
A decent citrus-peach wheat beer without any frills. No aroma or finish, but drinkable and not tasteless, it'll get a 7.5/10 with a bit of a stretch.

Barley.
Not very good. Just beer, not bad and not good. There's no point in drinking it; it's better to have the Elite or Green, depending on your personal preferences.
