I was really expecting this to be an Imperial lager, and at the pour was thinking Vienna, so was pleasantly surprised to find it as a brown ale. Caramel colored, bur clear, initial high fluffy head, sinks down to a nice creamy coating. Aroma of caramel and grain, dark bread. Taste is malt, caramel, toffee, mildly sweet, slick mouthfeel with some mild sweetness lingering. A very nice surprise.

Style-wise this is hard to pin down... the website says "brown ale" yet it's a bright and saturated copper orange color, like a bock. It appears to be a revival of an obscure regional style in Lithuania, safe to say there isn't a corresponding category on here.
Initial head of creamy white foam that laces a little bit with lasting coverage, bright clarity with racing carbonation. Looks a bit more like a lager, like a blonde doppelbock or something.
Aroma is sweet and estery, shortbread and baked apple, cooked cereal grains.
Taste is a little bit astringent, the beer is medium bodied with a bit too much carbonation. Bread and cooked apple flavors, yeast esters, a twinge of papery oxidation. A little more flavor than the typical euro lager, but I'm not really convinced it's a brown ale.
