Using a few holidays we had due to celebration Internation Women Day March 8-th) Vlad Shamov and me visited Bulgaria in the beginning of March. March 8-th in Bulgaria is working day. So during three days we visited five breweries. After returning from Bulgaria I went to Ekaterinburg for business trip. Then immideately I went to Ukraine and spend there one week. Trail was traditional: through Odessa to Kherson region, then Dnepropetrovsk, Donetsk region and, at last, Berdichev. At the end of month I visited Belgium. So I traveled a lot and drunk beer a lot also. As a result today review is rather big.

MM Light, (0,5 L; 10%), "Varnensko Pivo" brewery, Bulgaria

Three breweries "Varnensko Pivo" in Varna, "Ledenika" in Mezdra and "Rusensko Pivo" in Ruse make brewing group Bulbrew. From the recent time only Mezdra plant brews beer. Other plants only bottle beer. The explanation of this fact is that in Mezdra water is the best. "Ledenika" is using water from underground lake in caverns around the city. "Ledenika" brewery were renamed to "Ledenika and MM". But this fact reflected only on back labels. Face labels have no changes. As far as I'm sorting labels by face labels above mentioned "Varnensko Pivo" brewery.

MM special, (0,5 L; 11%), "Varnensko Pivo" brewery, Bulgaria

All I wrote above concerns to this label also. In Varna had never used rectangle labels. And more. This beer bottled in PET bottle. But PET bottle plugged with crown-cap instead of usual plastic cap.
