A black beer with a very small brown head, that disappears very fast. The aroma is sweet with notes of licorice - no smoke, like I'd expect from a Porter. The flavor is mild at first, then a slightly smokey sweetness hits you - then it becomes watery and finally it ends on an OK bitter note. It is not a good beer because of the mild start and the watery middle. I've had porters far better than this and Baltika 1, 4 and 8 are better too.

(Bottle 50 cl) Completely black and opaque. Small, dense light-brown head. Extremely burned notes, dry and very aromatic - spicy. A very solid Porter with lots of character and alcohol. Excellent. 210704

Brown-black coloured. Like the rest of Baltic-Beverage holding’s breweries’ beer it is sweet and rather unclean. Less full bodied than most Baltic porters. Big raisin flavour.

Leaner than some Baltic Porters, but still carries a few extra pounds in its treacly, winey body.

Bottle. Dark brown coloured with a huge beige head. Aroma of dried fruits with roasted notes and notes of chocolate and alcohol. Sweet flavour of chocolate and dried fruits with roasted notes.
