atalus (16), Riga, Latvia Feb 3, 2006 If You like dark beers with caramel aroma - this is the best choise. Try it and You never stop dreaming about do it one more time. Made with passion and love to all women in the World. cathcacr (519), Portland, Oregon, USA Mar 3, 2007 Pffft. The consensus is a philistinic ass! You put this stuff in a bottle that says "Ayinger Celebrator" on it, the consensus won’t know the difference, and it’ll rate a 4.1+! Wow. Just wow.
It’s a dead ringer for the Celebrator, I swear on any future children that I have, it’s the absolute truth. Even the head and retention rate is an exact match.
noelcb (271), Toledo, Ohio, USA Feb 25, 2005 Black color, good but short-lived head. Visible bubbles. Aroma of earth, malt, herbs, toffee and caramel. Straightforward taste with notes of butterscotch, coffee syrup, and peat. Mouthfeel is wonderful -- thick, chewy, bubbly and volatile. I was impressed at how good a Latvian porter could taste. More like a dark lager, maybe, but Bravo! Altaris, this is good. The_Beer_God (2857), Newport News, Virginia, USA Jun 6, 2004 Pours a deep brown with red around the edges. TALL foamy brown head. Lovely sweetened chocolate aroma. Brown sugar, caramel, and hints of coffee in there as well. Well formulated porter. Sweet taste with some coffee-ish bitterness towards the end. Taste is definite chocolate, some roasted malt, caramel, and a bit of a nutty flavor. Very smooth feeling in the mouth. Slides down you gullet. Finish is, well, sweet. Damn good beer! Wish I had more! Nice way to get Latvia out of the way. kms399 (266), plymouth, Minnesota, USA Feb 25, 2005 picture perfect pour.black with a frothy tan head that went right to the rim of my 22 oz glass. sadly the head dissipated quickly. taste is sweet almoast to sweet. smells of malt and caramel thick and creamy. great beer only draw back is sweetness.
