28th May 2006.
Warning! Early amateur rating! Bottle in Riga. Refreshing lager. Slightly fruity. Bitterish but with a clean finish. Respectable.

Nifty 300 ml octagonal A leCoq brown glass bottle, bought in Riga. ABV is 5.0%. Pale golden colour, large to moderate white head. Fruity and flowery aroma, quite nice. The flavour is also fruity and quite refreshing. Lemony finish. Some more malts and bittering hops might have been a good idea. Light bodied, soft mouthfeel. No masterpiece, but better than I feared.

Nice special bottle - of one Estonian A Le Coq beers, I wonder if beer is also basicly the same.
Pale yellow, small white head. Grassy corn aroma. Malty, crisp and very watery. Like a "Light beer". Too light to be remembered.

A yellow beer with a white head. The aroma is sour malty - makes me think of brewing cereal. The flavor is malty with notes of oranges and hops, while the body is thin.

Very light yellow. Grassy-grainy aroma with some berry notes. Very quick palate. Light. Malt-hops...what little there are...are in balance, but the water dominates. Yum.

Comes in a cool octaeder shaped bottle (Afanasiy style, for those who have seen that bottle). Unfortunately the good things end there. It is pale yellow and boosts a rather unpleasant adjunct aroma. It medium bodied, sweet and unclean with an offensive compost heap finish.
