Bottled from Riga Airport. Clear golden, rich airy head. Fruity nose, Sweet and medium bodied with rounded mouthfeel and fairly solid body Some honey and dust before sugartakes over. No bitterness. To blown up and sweet, but better than most macros.

500ml Bottle - Golden with a white head. Slightly hoppy aroma with hints of malt and fruit. Slightly funky taste with malt and some fruity hints. Drinkable, but slightly odd.

330ml bottle (Riga Airport) as "Hincenberga Gaisais" - gift from Serge at work - thanks!
Mid gold, persistent thin frothy head. Spicy aroma, some ginger. Sweet malty body, a touch watery, dishwater. A simple lager, slightly milky and definitely with that Latvian fingerprint. Some soapy hop finish. In theory, an interesting lager, but in practice not bold enough to really grab me.

Bottle from Riga Airport. Dark gold, fluffy head. Rich malty body, rather sweet. Appleas, peaches, a little dust. A hint of bitterness in the tail, but not much.
