Bottle from local Polish shop – drank at home. Pours golden yellow (with a greenish tinge) with a very transient and frothy off-white head. Aroma has continental hops mixed with honey and sugar. In the mouth it is cloyingly sweet but with some underlying bitterness which gradually increases. Corn starts off as the main flavour but is gradually replaced by continental hops whilst malty hints remain throughout. Finish is slightly spicy. Surprisingly nice and quite drinkable.

Augšdaugava Diždadzis Red IPA 5,8% ABV. 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.
