Bottle from Beers of Europe. Nice hoppy fruity aroma, clear golden yellow colour. Slighty dry hoppy flavour, smells better than it tastes but still another good Latvian lager.
2.8 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Pour from a 0.5 L bottle. Slightly cloudy brew with a thin white head. Aroma of light malt and hops. Nicely balanced flavor, slightly on the sweet side, with light hops in the finish. Nothing bad here, indeed is quite good, though not very distinctive.

The aroma is sweet and malty with paper, grass, soap, flowers, and plastic. The appearance is golden with a small head. The taste is like the aroma. The palate is typical for the style. Overall a real dud, I don’t want another.

Gold, white fizzy head. Soft corn water nose warms to a light bready floral note. Sweet corn bread flavors prevalent throughout with a faint touch of metallic grains in the finish. Light bodied and seltzer thin with soft carbonation. No further comments necessary...
2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
Draught ata pizza-place close to Stockmans, Riga. Pale golden, white head. Bready, spicy and somewhat metallic aroma. Hoppy spicy flavor, some bread and with a rather long bitter finish. Good to be a latvian lager...
2.2 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 8/20
Can from a trip to Toronto a couple months back. Pours a clear light straw yellow with a large white head. Skunky, pond scum, a bit of sweetness and old musty cardboard. Medium bodied, very sweet grain flavor. Tastes slightly better than it smells, but not much. Finishes up sweet and grainy. Not so good.
