From a 500ml can on 7/6/2024. Pours a lightish amber with a smallish head. The nose features light caramel and nuts. Taste follows suit - it's malty with caramel, nuts, biscuit and rye bread, some cherry and sultana, finishing with a gentle bitterness. Medium bodied with moderate carbonation. A quite pleasant little dark beer, and much better than the ratings suggest.

500ml from the 24/7hr shop on Market St Aberdeen. The aroma is earthy, nutty, woody, earthy, rivita, brown bread, cereal, spent malt bins left out on hot day and grain. The taste is dry, touch of bitterness, earthy, woody, nutty, leather, cereal, grain, a splash of mighty malt, dried leaf and a touch of spice with a drying finish. Average body and carbonation. A bit too earthy and dry to be honest. A touch of sweetness wouldn't go amiss.

500ml bottle: BB 29th Sep 2020, drank at home on 16th Sep 2020, so just in date! Beige foam for a head, clean and clear brown body, with an amber hue. Malty nose and a sweet malty taste, thin body. A little disappointed to be honest, bottle cost over 3 Pounds in a local Eastern European shop!

On tap at Alus Seta, Riga Surprised I haven’t rated this one before, as it’s long been a firm favourite. Nose is mainly malts with undertones of toffee, honey and caramel. Pours a rich red brick brown with a small almost white head that soon dissipates. In the mouth is a lovely mixture of grains, fruit and nuts. Apples and cherries in the background. Finish is malts with just a hint of hops. A classic dunkel. Formerly the best beer in Latvia – but times have moved on.

October 11, 2018: 6/3/5/3/8=2,2 Smell - medium strong, roast, caramel pleasant, but could be better. Foam - medium thick, soft, some acidic bitterness notes. medium large, cream color (brown, white milk chocolate, but more to the yellow side) Quickly disappears, only some large thin bubbles remain. Appearance - quite light, bit hazy, orange color, personally I think this is one of least appealing ones I have seen :) Looks a bit like blood piss or tea. Taste - some acidic sourness, some bitterness and then sweetness, tastes like it is off, something wrong with this one I think, dont like taste at all... Maybe I got bad batch or it is off, but this not good ... Re-rate on 2024. Smell- weak malt Foam - thin, malty. Head is small, whiteish. Appearance - Clear orange-brown amber in color, weak carbonation. Brewer bottle cap. From - pint Taste - malt, weak hops, weak bitter tones. faint rye bread. Actually not bad. It's a lot better than last time I had it. This makes me think that this can go bad before 'best before ' date. 5/3/6/3/12 For end score removed one from overall because of previous expierience.

Bottle, thanks Eddan. A bit hazy dark reddish/brown with a small head. Sweetish with malt, light fruit and some honey. Nothing to write home about.
