50cl bottle from a Rimi Hypermarket in Latvia. Pours very dark brown with a fairly dens, beige head. Malty and bready with notes of sour dark berries, toasted malt and hints of spices. Strang and surprisingly acidic, maybe not quite as it should be? Anyway less sweet than expected, but it might just be the acidity getting all the attention. Malty and slightly earthy flavours with sour berries. Carbonation is lively and body feels a bit thin. Might be off. but still drinkable at least.
