Tap @TCBW15. Amber, light, thick white head. Woody, spicy aroma. This one really kind of taste like I thought yarrow would taste like, :) creamy, spicy. Not for me though.

Draught @ Tallinn Craft Beer Weekend 2015
Aroma is somewhat mild with biscuits, resin and caramel. Also pineapple juice. Flavour has strong pineapple juice tones, some herbal bitterness, grapefruit and hints of biscuits. Does not reach the top of DIPAs – but one of the best Latvian brews out there.

On tap at Tallinn Craft Beer Weekend. Hazy amber with a large off-white head. Hoppy and very fruity aroma with tropical fruits, pine, light citrus, malt and hints of herbs and caramel. Fairly sweet, but well balanced with lovely fruity flavours and a nice bitterness. Nice one! --- Beer merged from original tick of Pēteris Apinis (Peter The Hop) on 27 Mar 2015 at 20:53 - Score: 7

On tap at Tallinn Craft Beer Weekend. Hazy brown with a beige head. Aroma of roasted mslt with dark and bitter chocolate, notes of coffee and dark fruits and berries. Fairly sweet with some almost wooden acidity and a surprisingly bitter finish. Don’t quite get this one, but fair enough. --- Beer merged from original tick of Lielais Kristaps on 27 Mar 2015 at 17:18 - Score: 6
