Warning! Early amateur rating! Full bodied lager with a strength of taste you would associate with a much stronger lager. Slighty bitter finish. Alright.

From a 500ml bottle on 21/7/2010. Has a slight citrus aroma, almost like mandarin. Tastes sweet, with a touch of apple followed by a short, mild hop finish. Not the worst, but there are much better Latvian pales to be found.

500ml from tap. Shared with Stefan at outdoor restaurant in Riga’s Old Town 14.Jun.2010. Dark amber colour. Nutty aroma, which reminded me of newly made Maryland Cookies. Smooth. Tasted like hazelnuts; at first it appeared to be sweet, then the bitter notes protruded and lingered on.

Dark amber color, small white head. Bacon, grass and caramel in the nose. Sour milk, nuts, bread and malts in the flavor. Horrible.

Deep golden color, vanishing head. Rotten apple peals and cardboard aroma. Fizzy carbonation. Paper, metal, grains and vegetables. Aftertaste is metallic. Very unclean flavor - typical to Latvian pale lagers.

Clear yellow color, huge white cloudy head. Unclean buttery-diacetylic nose with some kind of metallic, grassy and earthy notes. Taste is similar, but actually it is not so bad: this beer has some Czech character with butterness and some hops. I could call this even a pilsner. Unfortunately lots of unclean flavors too.
