500ml bottle (SOPP2009)
Sweet malty aroma, very Latvian. Slightly papery hops while in the mouth. Some gingery malty body. Dry papery finish, but at least these are real hops. A touch of soap later.

Plastic bottle 1,0 ltr
Honey brown, small white head. Rye, malts in the nose. Malty, slightly alcoholic. Medium-bodied and clean. Bralis is one of the better breweries from Riga area.

(Plastic bottled, 1 liters, @HBF 2005) Golden color with a small head. Mild, quite alcoholic, slightly fruity aroma with apple hints. Quite alcoholic, but bearable berry flavor with vegetable hints. Medium-bodied, low-carbonated, moderately alcoholic palate. A semi-decent strong Baltic lager.
