Dutch Ratebeer Gathering. Opaque with a small brown head. Roasted malts, obvious bitterness, some earthy notes, complexity. Great mouthfeel. I’ve heard people say that this is the best Russian beer, and so far i must say they’re right. Oh, and nice bottle by the way.

Bottled, 6.8% ABV. Mocha aroma. Black color, brown head, good lace. Sweet, light bitter to bitter in the finish, strong coffee and roasted malts. Quite full and warming. Very nice Baltic Porter to taste but I couldn’t drink it all night long I’m afraid because of the overwhelming sweetness and thickness.

Full flavour, nice taste of toast and almost burned grain.
This was labelled a porter, and it clearly is - maybe there are several beers with the same name? This was a fine brew!
