Athanasius beer is an exquisite taste, unique aroma and real beer foam, which subsides very slowly, drawing beautiful patterns along the edges of the glass. The manufacturer took care of the diversity of its products and presented variations of beer for every taste and budget. Excellent beer from one of the most popular breweries in Russia, which has gained its popularity thanks to the same long-term traditions, is now familiar to almost everyone.
Peculiarities
Beer Athanasius is traditionally considered a drink with a "Russian soul". And it is named after the great merchant and traveler Athanasius Nikitin. And when you drink this cool, frothy drink, you involuntarily feel like a sort of sea captain chasing a white whale. And also, the beer itself combines ancient traditions and modern technologies. This gives the beer some flavor.
In addition, Athanasius Beer can satisfy the needs of a wide variety of consumers. About 20 types of beer, for every color and taste.
Manufacturer
The production line of Athanasius beer is one of the giant enterprises, which is rightfully included in the rating among other breweries. And the “brand” itself has existed on the Russian market for 10 years.
In 1887, the Austrian Emil Saltinsky bought a brewery on the banks of the river. Tvertsy and improved the brewery. The building was located on the banks of Tver and was called "Tver Bavaria". Beer has gained great popularity among the local population and has become one of the treasures of the city. In 1940, they wanted to reconstruct the building and complete new premises, but the war broke out and after the victory of the Soviet troops over the Nazi invaders, the brewery had to be rebuilt.
In 1976, a brewery was built from scratch in Tver (and under Soviet rule, the city of Kalinin). And in 1992, the plant passed into private hands and was named ZAO Tver-beer.
And only in 1998, a decision was made to completely reconstruct the building and rename it to Afanasy-beer OJSC. This is where the history of the Athanasius beer line begins.
At present, the company has transformed into a powerful holding, which is engaged not only in the production of beer, but also in other consumer goods: water, kvass, milk, meat products, seafood, nuts and dried fruits, olive oil.

Reviews
Afanasy holding has many varieties of beer. As well as reviews. And, no wonder that among them there are both positive and negative reviews. Someone is delighted with the Vintage Beer, but someone did not like it. But, in general, all forum users agree that the entire line of Afanasy beer is designed exclusively for the Russian consumer. Even varieties such as Porter give off something domestic, but at the same time it does not spoil the taste, but on the contrary, it adds zest.
Very good bright taste, reasonable price
User Alexander in his review on the otzovik website (link: http://otzovik.com/review_5239682.html) singles out Athanasius "Domashnee" beer as one of the best in this price range. It has a pleasant aftertaste and a sweet smell. In addition, Alexander notes the availability of the product for the general population.
Beer for real lovers
And the user kjnjc from Rostov in his review (link: http://otzovik.com/review_2784673.html) speaks positively not only about the beer itself, but also about the design of the bottles. Levushka even calls for the reuse of glass containers on the farm. But the most important thing is that all the bottles are beautiful and ergonomic. For example, a keg of merchant beer is convenient for transportation and is equipped with a special lug that fits easily in your hand. Especially if you are transporting containers across the city. Vintage beer can be closed again so that the smell does not disappear.
Decent Porter
Vlad in his review (link: http://bestofbeer.ru/beer/porter/) speaks very positively about Porter beer, comparing it only with the famous drink from Pardubice. This, according to the user, is the best beer for this price. He calls to judge the quality of beer by the foam. If the foam is homogeneous, snow-white, has a height of at least 4 cm and settles slowly, then the drink is of high quality.
Not the best from the plant Athanasius
Not without a fly in the ointment, though. For example, based on Denis's review on the otzovik website (link: https://otzovik.com/review_5744655.html), one can judge the product as a tasteless, diluted beer. The product comes from the hometown of the author of this review, he was very disappointed.
As you can see, many members of the forum have contradictions about certain types of beer. And it's not even a matter of taste. Most likely, many are faced with fakes, which, unfortunately, are common in many regions of the country. Therefore, before buying a product, carefully examine the packaging. Read the composition, date of manufacture, expiration date.

Brewery "Afanasy" endured a long history. It originated in the time of Tsarist Russia. Survived the Great October Revolution. It was destroyed during the invasion of the Nazi invaders and, one might say, witnessed the collapse of the USSR. But at the same time, long-term traditions are still felt in the Afanasy beer line. It's like you're transported back a hundred years. At the same time, the company did not neglect new innovative technologies and always kept up with the times.
The combination of traditional flavors and modern design adds even more charm to this beer. More convenient packaging and a wide variety of products make Athanasius beer more and more popular on the market. But the company also does not deviate from the intended path. Constant experiments, bold innovative ideas bring more and more variety to the company's products, designed for any preferences of the buyer.
Afanasy is a Russian beer brand that has been on the market since 1994. Brewed at the facilities of Afanasy Private Brewery LLC, the brand is distributed by the NikitiN trading company. The assortment portfolio contains 11 sorts of beer. Products are exported to the CIS countries, Lithuania, Estonia. The main sales in the domestic market are in Moscow, St. Petersburg, the regions of Siberia and the Krasnodar Territory.
History reference. The appearance of the brand "Afanasy" is associated with a long tradition of brewing in the Tver region. At the end of the 19th century, thanks to the efforts of the Austrian Emil Slatinsky, a brewery was founded on the banks of the Tvertsa River, called "Tverskoy Bavaria". A wide range of drinks was produced here, from "Black Velvet" beer to fruit drinks, kvass and fruit waters. During the Second World War, many of the plant's buildings were destroyed, but by 1945 the enterprise had started production again.
In the brand's own history, 1976 was taken as the starting point, when the new Kalininsky plant was put into operation. After 16 years, the company was transformed into a joint-stock company, and the flagship beer was named after the Russian pioneer, Afanasy Nikitin from Tver. The beginning of the 21st century turned out to be very difficult for the company: several attempts were made to raid the plant, accompanied by lengthy legal proceedings.
Having overcome the period of internal contradictions and external interference, by 2011 the company diversified production and began to develop new production markets. Today "Afanasy" has become a diversified holding producing dairy products, meat and fish delicacies, snacks, fruit drinks, and mineralized drinking water in addition to beer.

Types of beer Athanasius
"Athanasius Light", 4.9%
Light beer of golden-straw color, snow-white foam cap is dense and persistent. The aromatic range is made up of tones of malt, white bread, caramel, tarragon herb. The taste is dominated by a shade of ripe duchesse pear, set off by spicy esters and turning into caramel sweetness. In a long and dry aftertaste, hops are revealed at full power, surprising with an unexpected richness of shades: apricot kernels, bitter almonds, Amaretto liqueur, ginger.
"Athanasius Khlebnoe", 4.9%
The novelty in the brand line is a variation on the theme of the German Roggenbier. A certified brewer from the Munich Beer Academy was invited to develop the recipe. The recipe uses light barley and fermented rye malt. The drink has a rich chestnut-copper color, dense medium bubble foam. The aroma is refreshing, with kvass sourness and a fruity-caramel component. Characterized by a full and structured body, carbonation is moderate and soft. The taste successfully combines dryness, raisin sweetness, light bitterness, like from a crust of black bread. Well quenches thirst on a hot day, will be an excellent basis for making okroshka.
"Athanasius Unfiltered", 3.6%
Preparation of water for brewing unfiltered beer is made on German equipment, which ensures the preservation of product quality for two months. The color in the glass is golden yellow, slightly cloudy in the light. Fine-bubble foam is very resistant, creates the feeling of an oxygen cocktail. The aroma is light, with hints of flowers and yeasty freshness. The body is medium-full, with mild carbonation. In a balanced taste, neither hops nor malt stick out, there is a taste of dried fruit compote and an unobtrusive bitterness.
Athanasius Porter, 8.5%
One of the brand's most popular varieties, brewed at the factory since 1992. It is an example of a classic Baltic porter, but in a brighter interpretation. It is very dark, almost black, with ruby glimpses, color, thick and viscous coffee foam does not fall off for a long time. As the bouquet unfolds, numerous shades appear in it: caramel, prunes, cherry liqueur, old port wine. Sweet and slightly vinous taste reveals notes of roasted malts, chocolate, raisins, liquorice. The dry aftertaste is remembered with a touch of burnt oak and a noticeable hop bitterness, which is typical for porters. Although the alcohol content of the beer is high, no alcohol tones are felt either in the smell or in the taste.
"Athanasius Experimental Dark Lung", 4.5%
The brand's experiment in creating a light and drinkable dark lager, brewed with several types of roasted malts. The color is chestnut, in the light - with a ruby core. When poured into a glass, a fluffy cap of beige-brown foam is formed, the fineness and density of which increases from bottom to top. The body is not too dense, the carbonation is medium. Burnt tones and background sourness are caught in the creamy-chocolate aroma. The taste is characterized by malt, bread and chocolate notes, dryness and hop bitterness gradually increase towards the finish.
