3.5
Appearance - 4 | Aroma - 3 | Flavor - 4 | Texture - 4 | Overall - 3

33cl bottle from Valmiermuiža Alus Tirgotava, Riga. Pours hazy yellow with a white head. Aroma of farmyard and manure, some slightly fruity and malty notes behind there, but mostly funky farm. Not directly unpleasant, but feels dirty and messy. Nothing here that reminds me of IPA, just farmhouse. Obviously infected, but thankfully not a gusher. A bit fizzy mouthfeel, and a medium bitter finish. No thanks.

Smell- weak to medium, hops some citrus. Foam- huge in mouth, sour, bitter thin, not watery, slowly rising in bottle, large in glass as well, creamy orange color. Quite lasting. Appearance- medium dark, hazy brown, looks a bit like hazy apple juice. Taste - citrus, some sourness, bit more bitterness, weird, not my type at all. Aftertaste is sour and bitter, no thanks. Rerate some time later: It gets better, a bit, still dont like it, but it gets bit more drinkable, so upped score a bit.

I've had better homebrews than this. Just so bad that even sink doesn't want it.

On tap at Taka, pours a hazy a dark orange with a small beige head. Aroma brings out bitter citrusy hops, with orange rinds and caramel bready malt. Flavour is quite bitter, with orange rinds, citrus hops, earthy notes and biscuity malt. Astringent but pleasantly bitter. It's solid.
