Das Dorf Jaunpiebalga in der lettischen Provinz hat nicht viel zu bieten: eine Schule, ein Feuerwehrhaus und... eine Brauerei! Das Piebalgas Alus ist ein einfaches unkompliziertes Bier, das man wohl am besten an einem See im Bezirk Jaunpiebalga im Sommer trinkt. Ich habe meines aber über einen Bekannten erhalten (Herzlichen Dank übrgens an der Mitbringer) und in der großen Stadt verkostet. Ein unauffälliges Standardbier, dessen größte Auffälligkeit das Foto eines lustigen betrunkenen Männleins auf dem Etikett ist.

Medium offwhite head. Clear yellow body. Faint, vague mealy aroma. Sweetish herbal softly resiny taste with spicy notes. Mid-bodied. Mild, mealy mouthfeel. Dryish herbal spicy aftertaste with grassy rubbery waxy notes. It’s OK. Grew on me a little as I drank. (0.5l bottle, from Alus Tirgus, Riga.)

Flaske 500ml spandert av djoeye og delt på Nerstranda 16 Jul 14. Gyldengulbrun. Pent kritthvitt skum med litt lacing. OK gress/maisaroma. Myk munnfølelse. Smaken er litt honning - og mer mais. Blir for søt.

50cl bottle from Riga Airport. Pours clear mahagoni with a small, off-white head. Aroma of caramel and malt with some roasty and earthy notes and a hint of alcohol. Sweet, caramelly and mild malty with a hint of bitterness. Medium body with fairly average carbonation. Quite okay, but boring and a bit too much on the sweet side for my taste.

Better fresh on tap, quite decent lager. 50cl bottle from Riga Airport. Pours clear golden with a white head. Weak malty aroma with notes of herbs, grass and alcohol. Medium sweet with a herbal bitterness. Slightly unpleasant and not far from the usual pale lagers, but slightly more flavour and bitterness, and more alcohol. Not my cup of tea. (3-3-4-3-8)

Big brown lasting head. Clear deep brown body with light carbonation. Light roasty earthy caramelly aroma with spicy minty herbal notes. Dry-sweet earthy minty musty taste with grainy compost notes. Mid-bodied. Sharpish fizzy mouthfeel. Dryish minty caramelly earthy aftertaste with roasty dusty wooden notes. Interesting and unusual, but a bit musty and earthy. (0.3l draft at Citi Laiki, Riga.)
