Attempts to determine best beer in RussiaHowever, in other countries, it is constantly being taken, but true brews are skeptical about such ratings. And there are several reasons for it:

• first, in the production of foam drink there is never stagnation, and therefore they will not have time to have strict judges to name the best beer (based on the study of the market and consumers survey ), as a replacement, another leader comes in a new ranking;

• secondly, any survey covers a relatively narrow circle of beer admirers, and therefore it simply cannot reflect all the tastes and preferences of the multi-millionth army of consumers. That is why in the comments to any rating you can find angry statements like "Your best lager - just rubbish";

• thirdly, in Russia, such ratings are empty, because it is impossible to objectively determine the best beer for such a huge country. Most often, beer ratings are focused on the main megalopolises of the European part of Russia, and even they simply do not go further in Moscow and St. Petersburg.

Rating of the best Russian beer

Still, with the latest ratings of the best Russian beer should be familiarized. At least in order to obtain information that can be for many useful. So, according to them, several varieties of the Light Lager "Moscow Brewing Company" are considered the best. This is "Khamovniki": "Munich", "Pilzenskoye" and "Vienna". Munich is especially famous for Munich in the rosy, which can be enabled in the best bars and restaurants of Moscow. It is worth paying attention to the brand of the same manufacturer "CERVENA SELKA".

The second place is confidently occupied by a number of varieties of the Anapian brewery "Bogherhof", among which the "ryety-alone" and "Bannaya Dark" (although many prefer the bright lager of this brand).

In the third place were two varieties of "Tomsk beer" (bright and dark) of the Siberian company of the same name. Although fans of strong beer would certainly prefer to move to one of the leading positions of Porter "Athanasius" of the Tver brewery of the same name, and lovers of a light camp would prefer the Siberian Corona varieties of JSC San Inbev. And what beer is better in fact, it is difficult to say, there is no reason to say: there is no comrades to the taste and color ...

For example, brewing from the Ulyanovsk region assure that the best beverage, which is produced in the mini-brewer of Zlata Podkova Dimitrovgrad, is not in all of Russia, and maybe in Europe. It is not by chance to try it, even Muscovites and Petersburgers come here, and rare foreign guests are surprised to find that in the Russian outback you can have a stunning El! ..

Best Foreign Beer in Russia

Many people remember that even thirty years ago, the best of the best for the Russian consumer was any foreign beer. Fortunately, this state of affairs remained in the past. Today, the domestic foam drink is not worse, but it is the order of magnitude better, and it is first. And secondly, the imported product is always more expensive than this domestic. For this reason, by the way, foreign beer varieties are considered in a separate rating category as the most expensive.

The first place among such drinks in many Russian ratings is occupied by the Bavarian Beer Spater (full name - Spaten Munchen Hell) of the German Brewean-Franziskaner-Brau GmbH, which produces it in Munich since 1397. The "Spaten" logo even became a symbol of the main annual beer festival of Germany "Oktoberfest".

On second place, most Russian pivomans are placed by Belgian El Blanche de Namur with his spicy fruit aroma (Curaçao and Coriander). In 2009 at the international exhibition World Beer Awards, this drink was recognized as the best white blanche in the world.

Well, the third place is our consumer by a majority vote awarded the German Franziskaner Wheat Drink, which is produced by the Munich brewery of the same name from 1363 years. His undoubted advantages is a special culture of beer yeast, a unique wheat malt and strict use in the production of three main ingredients: water, hops and malt.

As you can see, unambiguously answer the question of which beer is better than all others in Russia, quite difficult. Probably, for this reason, the first beer club was created at one time, which helps its members to keep the right course in the modern "Sea of \u200b\u200bBeer". Although, which sin to hone, many of those who come to this wonderful association are not less interested in discountswho bars and restaurants are club partners - provide its members.

And since such cooperation is very mutually beneficial, then such benefits, as well as the institutions that provide them, in Russia (and not only) becomes more and more. Therefore, try the best beer, including foreign production, for members of the club becomes not a problem. If you want to drink only the best beer varieties at affordable prices, then we are waiting for you in the "first beer club"! To obtain discounts in popular institutions, you need to get a special.

Ranking voiced the brand of the most delicious beer presented on the counters of Russian shops. A total of 40 well-known brands was investigated on the site on the department's website.

Most of the proven samples were produced in Russia: 12 - in Moscow and Moscow region, 6 - in St. Petersburg, 6 more - in the Yaroslavl region, 4 - in the Kaluga region, 3 - in the Tula region, 2 - in Nizhny Novgorod and Samara regions, as well as in Tatarstan and one more sample - in the Ivanovo region and Bashkiria. The price of beer purchased as part of the study varies in retail from 67 to 260 rubles per liter. Within the framework of the first stage of verification dedicated to the 2018 World Cup, the experts conducted beer research on two criteria: taste properties and the number of malt.

Rating on taste

During the tasting, no beer received the maximum rating from experts - 5.5 points. However, the winner is still there, and this is Amstel beer with a result of 5,167 points. Further, in the "tasty" rating, the Khalzan beer followed, estimated at 5.117 points, and BUD, which received 5.1 points. Also in the top 11 for organoleptic properties, drinks of such brands such as Heineken, Stella Artois, Three Bear, Efes, Krušovice, Faxe and Bavaria.

The least points in this category experts gave the beer of trademarks "Okskoy", "Gorky", "Zhigulevskoe", "Baltika" and "Sverdlovsk".

Samples of three stamps came out from the distance: the specialists did not try them due to non-compliance with the norms on foam resistance - the beer foam did not last on the surface of the beverages of the stated three minutes. This is the "Siberian Crown" beer, "arsenal" and "Samara".

Salt rating

High-quality beer should contain no less than 80% of the malt, another 20% can be non-bodied products, that is, unpainted barley grains and other cereals. Experts argue: if the manufacturer used more than 20% of these ingredients, it saved on raw materials, and the final product in this case should not be called beer.

So, the greatest amount of malt was found in the beer of the brands "Hunt", "Ochakovo", Lowenbrau, Krusovice Imperial, "Khamovniki", "Zhiguli Barna", Bud, Amstel, Carlsberg and "Siberian Crown", not allowed to tasting.

But in five samples, the limiting concentration of nitrogen was exceeded - this means that the manufacturer used the malt is not the best quality. Such a violation was identified according to the results of a laboratory study of the beer "Okoe", "Gorky", "Arsenal", "Samara" and "Sverdlovsk".

At the same time, they note in russia, even the cheapest samples did not contain unacceptable additives, were not made from "powders", which means they did not constitute synthetic products, or simply surrogate.

Most of the goods in the study - Russian production, including Moscow and the Moscow Region (12), St. Petersburg (6), Nizhny Novgorod Region (2), Yaroslavl Region (6), Tula Oblast (3), Samara Region (2), Kaluga region (4), Ivanovo region (1), Bashkortostan (1), Tatarstan (2). The cost of products amounted to from 67 to 260 rubles per liter.

The study gradually passes in several accredited test centers in several areas, including the mandatory requirements of the current legislation, an expanded tasting program, as well as increased requirements for the quality of raw materials.

Results are published on a special page www.roskachestvo-beer.ru. .

At the first stage, experts checked beer for compliance with its identification features, having studied indirect indicators of the number and quality of raw materials - sitting and sloped products that are used in the production of light beer.

Among the consumers there are myths that beer, especially cheap, this is a kind of artificially carbonated surrogate from powder, alcohol, water and various additives (for example, dyes, taste amplifiers), which is literally per day.

Already at the first stage, the study made it possible to debunk this consumer myth, says deputy Head of Ranking Elena Sarattseva. « During the monitoring of the quality of the beer of all the most popular trademarks in the Russian market, not a single "synthetic" product, which would be made, as consumers sometimes think, the express method of batting various additives and adding alcohol" Consumers suspecting that a foamy drink is solid "chemistry", it is worth considering: to prepare beer from some "powders" and hoods simply expensive, inexpedient. But here is expensive raw materials - malt, indeed in the established proportions can be diluted with non-foul products, which is allowed by law.

Thus, for the preparation of beer, at least 80% of malt (glowed and ground barley grains, wheat or rye) should be used and up to 20% can be non-bodied raw materials - these are not germinated barley grains or other cereals. They are added to create a blend. But if there is more than 20% unpainted barley or wheat, it suggests that the manufacturer made a violation of the law and tried to save. Such a drink cannot be considered a classic beer.

Specifying the violation of these proportions indirectly maybe such an indicator as the mass concentration of total nitrogen. If its concentration is less than 600 mg / dm3, then the manufacturer could save on fermented malt. Also, a similar deviation may be associated with malt quality and low protein content. Note that the protein content in the grain is unstable. It changes depending on the crop, year, the sun. However, a range was set, in which the beer contains at least 600 mg per dm3 of total nitrogen: this indicator is performed and if the manufacturer used 80% of the bad barley (with a low protein content) and when using 70% of the selected barley. This indicator is included in the increased demands of the Ranking Standard for applicants for the State Quality Sign.

In five cases out of 40, due to deep laboratory analyzes, a nitrogen deviation was revealed, which indirectly indicates the use of a reduced amount of raw materials or its low quality. From the point of view of the consumer, such a beer should be called a beer drink rather. Nitrogen comments - to the beer "Arsenal", "Okoe", "Gorky", "Sverdlovsk" and "Samara". These trademarks turned out to be at the bottom of the rating and got a yellow card.

Ten of goods with a large number of malt compared to other brands entered "Hunting", "Ochakovo", "Siberian Crown", Lowenbrau and Krusovice Imperial, "Zhiguli Barna", "Khamniki Vienna", Bud, Amstel, Carlsberg.

Checking the correlation between the amount of malt and taste was carried out by russia with the involvement of a tasting commission, which includes leading industry experts of international associations and certified organolepta. Members of the Commission put the displaced samples for the taste, color, aroma, foam resistance. The last indicator, according to the mandatory GOST, will be checked by measuring the height of the foam and the time of its settlement. In particular, in a special glass with a diameter of 70-75 mm and a height of 105-110 mm poured beer so that the drink falls into the center of the container. Foam, according to the national standard, with such a "enjoyable" body must be at least 3 cm high, and before it dissolves should pass at least 3 minutes.

Note that the three goods were removed by the Commission with tasting, because Their foam asslaved a little earlier. This is a "Siberian Crown", "Samara" and "Arsenal". The remaining 37 samples were allowed until the next stage of the tasting and received estimates for the taste, color and fragrance.

According to the test results of taste, the highest mark of the Commission of Ranking from all goods at beer Amstel (5,167 points). Chalzan, Bud, Heineken, Stella Artois, Three Bear, Krusovice Imperial (Czech production), Krusovice Imperial (Czech production), Efes, Bavaria, Krušovice (Russian production) are located behind it.

Antiketer, who received the lowest points of the Commission on the results of the blind tasting (except for the "Arsenal", "Siberian Crown" and "Samara", "Arsenal", "Siberian Crown" and "Samara") were: "Zhigulevskoe barrel" (production of the branch of JSC "Bivovaryna Moscow-Efes" in G. Kazan), "Gorky", "Okoe", "Baltika №3", "Sverdlovsk".

After all laboratory tests are completed, a detailed report on the results of research obtained will submit a detailed report on the results of the research results, and will also form proposals for improving the quality of alcoholic beverages, including proposals for changing the current GOST.

We remind you of alcoholic beverage abuse fraught for your health. We also inform that this material is not recommended to familiarize themselves under the age of 18.

Malt, hops and water are the main components of the wort. What kind of wort is, everyone knows everything. Experts still operate with such a concept as the extractiveness of the initial wort is the content of dry extractive substances in beer. What forms color, aroma, consistency, foaming, rich taste, resistant foam. If the beer is clearly diluted, then such beers will be lower than necessary extract. With this indicator, all the studied samples are full order.

All samples sent to the study are also tested for the maintenance of DNA of various cereals to determine what kind of origin is low raw materials. To create a certain blend, the manufacturer can use not only wheat, but also other cereals. According to the results of studies in any of the samples of DNA corn, rice, soy, oats - was not detected.

7th place. Krusovice Imperial 5,034 points - in the Navy ranking on the 5th place

2-3 place: "Siberian Crown" - removed from tasting for low foaminess.

Beer for a long time is considered one of the most favorite drinks of men. As a result, the range of products presented and determine the best beer in Russia is becoming increasingly harder. The problem of choice arises not only about the products of Russian production, but also imported from other countries.

Before you assign a certain brand the title of better beer, you need to familiarize yourself with the basic rules for choosing a quality drink:

1. It is better to acquire a drink on bottling, because it is more likely that the products were stored according to all the requirements. Such alcohol in most cases is stored in kgs, which are made of chromed steel, non-corrosion. They save beer from the negative impact of the rays of the sun, as well as strangers.
2. Much more benefits will bring the purchase of "living" beer. This is called a fresh unfilted drink, in which there is a large number of microelements beneficial for the body (calcium, iron, manganese, potassium) and beer yeast, which have therapeutic properties and contain all the vitamins of the group V. B. But, stopping their choice on such a variety of beer, Take into account the fact that its storage period is only a few days.

If you go on a trip, then the optimal option will be purchased from a bottle or can be obtained, here you also need to pay attention to a number of moments:

1. When selecting a drink, stop your choice on the one, which has a smaller shelf life, most likely contains fewer different preservatives. It is noted that to store the presented drink in bottles, such a preservative is added to it as ascorbic acid, which increases the duration of the product storage.
2. Pay attention to the date of the spill, it is desirable to choose the nearest. Recently spilled alcohol, most likely, was less influenced by the influence of negative factors. The presented drink is strongly affected by the storage features (temperature regime, sun rays), which are rather irresponsible to Russia.
3. In order to purchase a good bottle alcohol, it is recommended to take it from the refrigerator - beer loves to be in a coolness. Even imported alcohol, being on the shop window, is able to spoil in the shortest possible time.
4. Choosing between the beverage in a tin can and a glass bottle, it is better to stop your choice on the latter, because it is not able to absorb various flavors, thereby giving beer an unpleasant taste. And on the acquisition of a thick drink in plastic bottles it is necessary to refuse immediately, since this material passes oxygen and alcohol becomes unsuitable for use.
5. It is recommended to buy beer in dark or green bottles, since they are much less passed through themselves the sun rays. It would be even more useful to consider products in an aluminum bank if there was no metallic flavor.
6. Regardless of whether you take the beer of which manufacturer, you need to take bottles placed in the back of the showcase, as they are less exposed to the sun and probably more than fresh release.
