A generalization of η-Ricci solitons is considered involving an additional metric and functions as soliton coefficients. The soliton potential is torse-forming and orthogonal to the contact distribution of the almost contact B-metric manifold. Then such a manifold can also be considered as an almost Einstein-like manifold, a generalization of an η-Einstein manifold with respect to both B-metrics and functions as coefficients. Necessary and sufficient conditions are found for a number of properties of the curvature tensor and its Ricci tensor of the studied manifolds. Finally, an explicit example of an arbitrary dimension is given and some of the results are illustrated
