Clear gold, decent white head. Bready malt aroma, slightly sweet. Malt cereal palate, some reedy hop character to finish that begins as fairly subtle but shows itself as perfectly balanced as the pint gets lower in the glass. Medium heaviness for mothfeel. I had several of these tonight and enjoyed them.

Bottle 0.33L. Clear golden body with an average, frothy, white head, mostly diminishing with a good lacing. Moderate hoppy aroma (flowers, citrus) with a light malty character; fruity notes, maybe pineapple. Moderate bitter-sweet flavour: well balanced. Light-to-medium body with a watery texture; lively carbonation; light metallic feeling in the finish. Nice lager beer.

On tap in a beach bar at Jurmala, Latvia. Pale golden colour, moderate head. "Neutral" aroma. Clean flavour, with a moderate hoppy bitterness on a pleasant but very moderate malty base, with some nice notes of fruit (pineapple). Easy drinking.

Aroma of sweet malt, a little grassy, and some lemon. Pours a pale gold with a soapy white head that stays for a little while. Flavor is initial malty sweetness followed by a lemon hop flavor that is rather strong. Crisp and citrusy. A nice thirst quenching lager.
