Bottle 33 cl. Pours a clear dark golden with a white head. Some citrusy hop presence in the nose, if not exactly overwhelming. Medium body, some caramellish malt and fruit with a rather bitter finish. Not a bad product at all, but could've had a little more aroma focus. 200519

Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.

Probably crapbeer, but had not tried it yet. Sold in Lats owned store, probably brewed by someone. Smell- weak, metallic, some hops maybe. Foam- thin, softish, to watery side, soem bitter notes at sides after shaking. Foam is medium to large, white, creamy white, yellowish. Appearance- clear yellow, amber, green, some carbonation in and at sides. Taste- weak bittersweetness, some alcohol or metallic feel to it, aftertaste is weird, yet this is not as terrible as I expected, maybe because it was not first beer of day.

Imperial pint can from Bliznetsy in Moscow. Pours clear gold with a medium-sized white head. Aroma is grain, white bread, malt. Taste is light sweet, malt, low bitter finish. The only thing that makes it stand out from other pale lagers is that it’s Latvian but brewed in Lithuania.
