Bottled (as Latgales Dunkel, from Alko Prisma, Vaasa). Deep reddish brown colour with a mediumsized foamy head. Aroma is syrupy sweetness, mild toast as well as some caramel. Flavour is a bit less sweet, but still quite syrupy with mild wooden and toasted notes.

Dizdadzis Smell- weak malt, faintly herbal, faintly peppermint somehow? Foam- thin, malt, weak bitter tones. Head is medium-sized, white orange tint. Sticks a bit. Appearance- generic bottle cap, simple Latvian-ish label. Clear orange red in color, with few carbonation bubbles. From - pint Taste - weak malt, weak herbal tones, weak hops, weak grass. I like the herlbalness mix with malt. Interesting.

Beerhouse No. 1 Special Craft Beer. 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.

Seems missed this one somehow.Also, I am thirsty. Smell-weak malt, caramel. Foam-thin, sweet, malty, caramel, faint hops. Head is medium-sized, medium-dark brown color. Sticks a bit. Appearance- bottle wrapped in money, I kind of like it... but bottle cap is generic, so averages out. From - pint Taste- malty, sweet, caramel, faint hops. Fairly drinkable, not too bad, could drink again.
