(Bottle, 0.33 l, thanks FatPhil, 20170318) The beer poured golden and clear. Its head was medium sized and white. Aroma had fruitiness and mildly malts. Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was sweet and bitter. A mediocre pale ale.

Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were fruitiness, coconut, sweetness, malts and bitterness. Aftertaste was hoppy and bitter. Decent brew but the Sorachi coconut was too disturbing.

33cl bottle @punavuori tasting. Dark brown color with a thin white head. Syrupy, molasses, liquid bready aroma. Flavor has dark bread, syrup in flavor. Molasses. Thin, sweet, not very tasty I’m afraid.

TAP at Taka as Barda APA. Fresh grapefruit and piney hops in the nose, light fruity malts. Same hops in the flavour, pretty low on hop bitterness. The malts feel a bit muddy. Good hops, so so malts. Good, overall.

On tap at Taka bar, Riga. Slightly hazy dark amber with a dense off-white head. Rather fruity aroma with peaches and caramel dominating, almost reminds me of the canned peach jam. Fairly sweet and certainly fruity, but the bitterness is well balanced and it ends up as a very drinkable beer. A bit too much on the sweet side for my likings, but still quite delicious. --- Beer merged from original tick of Indijas Gaišais Eils on 15 Mar 2016 at 17:26 - Score: 7

On tap at Alus Muiza, Riga. Hazy brown to amber with an off-white to tan head. Moderate malty aroma with notes of sour fruits, spices and yeast. Peculiar, but fairly tasty, not so sweet, not very bitter, but some lightly sour notes. Slightly strange, but quite okay. (2014-11-15)
