The typical latvian caraway croissant reborn as a beer. The licorice like caraway is supported with the citrusy grassiness of Aramis hops. These are embraced by the fluffy sweetness of 3/4 wheat malt that will bring you into a tastescape of a bakery, with a lingering spiciness of caraway in the aftertaste.

Keg at BBF 7, Bodegraven, 25/09/15. Lightly hazed yellow golden with a moderately appointed off white covering. Nose is floral, bread dough, yeast, herbal, straw, lemon rind. Taste comprises much the same, pretty simple stuff, herbal pangs, lemon, straw. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Passable but forgettable.

Thx! for sharing. Sampled draft @ Borefts 2015. Day 2. Hazy golden. Nose is sweet citrus, oily flowers, bread, hops, hard to describe. Taste is citrus, weird bitter flowers, light anise, floral, weird herbs, light lemon, caraway I suppose, weird flowers, oily hops. Oily, very easy to drink. I quite like, very interesting, easy to drink but I find it very hard to describe this one, plenty of tastes which I cannot really pin point which is pretty great. Very nice beer.

Draught @ Tallinn Craft Beer Weekend 2015
Aroma has gooseberry bush and some grapefruit. Also cereal. Flavour has fruit candy, cereal and apricot. Rather grain-driven product, and feels raw.
