3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A Mes rate. Bottle at home thanks to Tashi.
Black brown with a thin beige head. Roasty and toasty malt, lots of fruit, some bread, coffee and a little cardboard. Hints of liquorice and leather. Nice sugary finish. Basic but decent.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
dark black colour, few head, burnt and liquorice aroma, sweet and slightly oily, burnt, raisin, long dry finish
3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bottle at GBBF, August 2005. Pretty much pitch black. No head to speak of. Dark chocolate, licorice and dried prunes dominate. Maybe a touch of balsamic vinegar. Sweetish edge, but not too sticky. Rather light bodied. Quite impressed.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Almost black, slowly diminishing mid-sized "milk-coffee" head; sweet malty (dark malt, roast malt, molasses) and fruity (raisins) aroma with a touch of iron; sweet flasvour in the beginning, switching over to a dryer (malty) taste, ending with a slightly dry, lingering roastmalty/coffeeish finish with a tinge of fruitiness. Warming and complex and pleasant and well drinkable.....
3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
Bottle 16.9 oz. Poured dark brown with medium light brown head. Good aroma with malt, hops and sweet tone. Medium to full body with creamy texture. Full flavor with mrdium sweet finish. Very good porter.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dark brown/black beer with a light brown head. Sweet toffee and milk chocolate aroma. A bit of earthiness and lightly herbal hop aroma as well. The malts are quite bready and sweet smelling. Good body with soft carbonation. The flavour is also slightly sweeet with chocolate and cocoa the most apparent. There is a faintly industrial pale malt aspect lurking in back that is a bit distracting, but the beer is pleasant enough.
3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Pours a rich dark brown, nearly opaque with a thick tan head. Aroma of mild caramel and chocolate sweetness, with a touch of lager yeast. Starts sweet and syrupy with a nice milk chocolate finish and toffee notes. Smooth, complex, and plenty sweet, a very enjoyable Baltic porter.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Malzig-milder Antrunk, ab dem Mittelteil erfolgt eine proportionale Malzsteigerung hin zu ansprechend wüürzig-malzigem Nachgeschmack, der mit seiner angedeuteten Schokoladennote auch noch süffig ist. Eins der besten Baltikas.
