The typical latvian caraway croissant reborn as a beer. The licorice like caraway is supported with the citrusy grassiness of Aramis hops. These are embraced by the fluffy sweetness of 3/4 wheat malt that will bring you into a tastescape of a bakery, with a lingering spiciness of caraway in the aftertaste.

Magus nisukas köömnetega tõesti, selline rohune maitse on ka. Iseenesest hoolimata 4.3% volist ei ole vesine (osalt tänu magususesele). Ok.

Bottle. Pours cloudy amber. Aroma is lemon grass, citric hops, some phenols, banana. Body is medium, fizzy carbonation, softly sweet, a bit wheaty phenolic. Oily and some minerals. Sweetish. Good, yet a bit bland.

Bottle at home after a long day of labour. Hazy pale golden with white head. Sweet and dry wheat, light fruity and some floral soapy aromatic notes, bready, doughy and yeasty, white pepper or radishes, fennel, anise, weird herbs & spices. Moderate sweet and bitter. Medium body, malty slick feel, dry finish. Original as always.

50cl bottle from Stockmann Riga. Pours hazy straw coloured to muddy yellow with a decent, lasting, white head. Rather strong spicy aroma that reminds me of cumin, guess that's the caraway, then. Some wheaty and slightly fruity notes too. Moderate to medium sweet with nice mixture of wheat and caraway. Easy to drink, fairly flavourful and enjoyable.

On tap at Bryggerifestivalen Trondheim 2016. Low white layer, spotty lacing, pale golden with a wheat haze. Aroma of ripe fruits and grain. Taste of lemon, bread and herbal hops. Ends with mid-dry fruitiness. Rather well made for the low abv. (shared with bergstaden 05.08.2016).
