Mežpils "tumšais brālis", kas radies pateicoties tumšajam un karameļu iesaliem. Brūni/tumši dzintarains lāgers ar nedaudz augstāku alkohola līmeni būs lielisks sabiedrotais visiem tiem, kads dod priekšroku tumšajiem aliem.

Thank you for sharing jefverstraete! 500 ml. bottle sampled @ RBBWG V. BBF 14.04.2016. Apparently this beer was re-fermented in the bottle using stevia which sounds just so messed-up on multiple levels for me. Apparently it was also meant to be a stout. Deep amber with an off-white head. Nose is akin to an old bock, oxidation, vegetable, herbal sweetness, old thin bock. Taste is herbal, old leaves, oxidized bock, old cooked vegetable, big herbal sweetness, vegetable. Body is that of an old thinned bock. Nope, just nope.

Clear beige brown beer, no head. Aroma: sweet, sugary, caramel, bit malty, bready, soft roast. MF: soft carbon, medium body. Taste: banana, malts, very metallic, bitter touch, soft roast. Aftertaste: metallic, bitter touch, malty, dry, ok, but underwhelming.

Bottle @ home. Clear deep dark red color, medium to full sized off-white head that diminishes quickly. Smell and taste malts, sweetish malts initially, caramel, a slight touch of milk chocolate somehow, quite weird. More bitter in the finish. Medium body, decent carbonation.

33cl can at Riga Airport. Pours clear, dark copper coloured with a fair, off-white head. Malty aroma with caramel, notes of dark fruits a hints of roasted malt and hops. Fairly sweet, mild in flavour, but drinkable enough. A bit thin and watery with carbonation slightly on the soft side. Hardly exciting, but fair enough.

Bottle at ABC beers thanks to deanso. Clear dark brown with off white head. Cardboard, light veggies, caramel, carrots, brown bread, light herbs. Light sweet with a lingering dry herbal bitterness that seems really off somehow. Under medium bodied with soft carbonation. There’s something there in the finish which is really off putting for me, but hard to describe what it is precisely.
