Baltika Breweries web site lists Indiana Juice. “a cocktail on the basis of beer with fruit tastes. Its production started in 2005, and in two years only it has become a national brand. An innovative technology is applied in its production: alcohol isn’t added in the drink but is formed by natural fermentation of the malt basis. The cocktail is produced with two most popular tastes — "orange" and "lemon". Indiana Juice is an available qualitative drink which perfectly freshens and invigorates. It is chosen by active young men who like to spend time at the parties and feel perfect in the urban environment. Alcohol content: 7 %. Natural fruit content: not less than 10%. 0.5 litre cans.
