Draught, shared with Finn at Folkklubs Ala Pagrabs. Upper part lacing on the glassware from pearl white head, unclear golden body. Mid-sweet malty nose with a touch of bread. Hints of caramel malts, bread, and biscuit to the taste character. Rounded malty ending, mid-sweet. Fair enough. (Riga, 08.11.2025).

On tap at Easy Beer, pours a hazy dark orange with a small white head. Aroma brings out biscuity malt and straw. Flavour is along the same lines, with biscuity malt, cereal grainy sweetness and straw. Nothing special, but it's clean and drinkable.

On draught at Easy Beer, Rīga. At 5.6%. Orange/gold, a bit hazy. A low-lying cloud of white head and a fair bit of lacing. Honey and astringent notes in the simple but pleasant enough aroma. Taste is pretty foul; sweet and sickly with an aspartame kick, and a herbal medicinal note. Flat oily body. Not good.

Small offwhite head doesn’t last. Hazy opaque reddish brown body. Earthy honey and nuts aroma with rye crisp bread and syrup notes. Dry-sweet roasty rye crisp bread taste with earthy honey notes. Mid-to-full body. Mild, mealy, soft mouthfeel. Dryish earthy caramelly honey aftertaste with dusty roasty strawy notes. Really nice, and extremely drinkable. This ain’t no zwickel. This is kaimiskas. (0.5l draft at Folkklubs Ala Pagraps, Riga.)
