Pours black with a thin head. Faint hint of coffee on the nose. Bits of licorice on the tongue. Finish is solid. This one doesn’t do it for me.
3.2 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 12/20
0.5l bottle traded with ElDesmadre. This one pours a clear deep ruby body with a nice medium sized beige and bubbly head. On the aroma I get a little bit of red fruits, cranberries perhaps, with a thin tone of caramel and dark malts. Not extreme. It has a nice light oily texture with a soft to average carbonation level. It tastes kinda funny I guess. Well, perhaps not funny but it’s quite kind for a Baltic Porter to be. It’s dark malty in taste with clear fruity tones. Kinda on the sweet side, but not to far out there. Ends with a hint of bitterness in the finish and actually a light warming and almost boozy tone in the aftertaste. Yeah, by far the best one I’ve had from Belarus! 26.04.2012
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap. Very dark red pour with creamy off white head - very pretty. Very malty aroma, dark caramel, plums, slightly roasty/smokey with a strange belgian twist. Taste is rich and sweet, good malty flavor, some smoke, mineral notes and dark fruits. Palate is thick, rich and well carbed, slightly overdone. A decent beer even though it didn’t correspond at all to what I expected style-wise.

500ml bottle (Beer Barrel, Vilnius)
Sweetish caramel aroma. Now I’ve seen the ingredients, I can see why. Deep red, light tan head. Again, a caramelly body. Quite similar to the baltic states baltic porters, but more obviously with sugar as an ingredient. Fortunately it’s not too sticky, despite the sweetness. It’s a full smooth body, just shy of slick. Doesn’t feel like the 6.5% on the label, but the baltic porters never do. A pretty tasty strong dark lager, but nothing more.

metal with malted barley and hay. looks like an amber with low carbonation this is a little pepper like with molasses type sweetness. components are weak throught the flavor and body. a bit of prune in there. some foamy dishwater hop.
1.6 AROMA 3/10 APPEARANCE 2/5 TASTE 3/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 6/20
Bottle from the Belarussian pavilion at VDNKh, the awesome Stalin-era theme park in Moscow, near to the Beer-Rulka brewpub. Reddish-brown. The aroma is caramel and butter. The taste is basically caramel. Vague breadcrust notes. Bland dark lager masquerading as a proper Baltic porter.
