| A major brand from a major brewery. I have seen
this beer in supermarkets in France, Germany, England, and Poland, but
the export is much more bigger than that. In Ukraine the brewery is the
biggest and most known. The establishment of the company began with the
Olympics in 1980 (Moscow). The Soviet Government wanted to build a
brewery with European standards, and as a result of that some Czech guys
were hired. The place of the brewery became Obolon, due to the fact that
it was near the Dniper river bank. After the fall of USSR Obolon became
the first brewery from ex-sovjet to export beers into Europe. My thanks
to Jeppe "Bierkönig" Bjergsoe, who helped me get this beer. |
