Bottle at Ilgezeem Centraltirgus, Riga Just a general sweetness in the aroma. Pours a very dark brown with a small beige head. Mouth is dominated by malts and sweetness, toffee, caramel and liquorice, with a bit of burnt toast to liven things up ! Finish is still sweet but hoppiness starting to come through. Not a brilliant beer, but nice to see another traditional Latvian brewery doing a porter.

150cl PET (as Tanheiser Kvass Nefiltrēts) from Prisma, Tallinn. Pours hazy brown without any head to speak of. Malty and breast with notes of dried fruits. Sweet, but with some acidity, so quite balanced and enjoyable.
