Rótulo engraçado alusivo à art noveau na cidade de Riga. Groselha negra, passas, um pouco de café. Corpo algo leve. Talvez demasiado doce mas não é algo que importune e bebe-se bem.

Bottle from Craft Beer Station, Northampton. Aroma is malty (Horlicks ahoy), with a liquorice and berry dose. Yeast. Dark and glossy. Creamy foamy beige head. Develops a bald spot. Liquorice and coffee. Some bitterness but also has a sweetness to it. Tangy. Underlying yeast. Light-medium bodied. Relatively thin but lifted by stickiness and fizzy carbonation. Long somewhat astringent finish. I like.

33 cl bottle @ hotel room, Riga. BBE 23.12.2024 Aroma has licorice and ash. Also sweet malt. Flavour has sweet malt, some licorice and hints of coffee. Way too sweet in a wat Eastern European porters usually are. Drinkability is not that great.
