3.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 14/20
Dark black color with a nice large tan head that's very retentive and excellent lacing. The aroma is nicely roasted with some milky sweet chocolate notes and some light bittering hops. The flavor is creamy with some mocha flavors but a little too astringent with the dark malts, almost seems like not enough alcohol to balance the amount of malts in this. Baltic porters are great in the 9+% range and this one would be too I imagine.

Silky smooth mouthfeel with excellent body. Taste is milky sweet with sharp roasted espresso, chocolate bitterness. Coca cola flavors are there as well. For the price, it’s a very good beer

Malty aroma with hints of cocoa. Nearly black apperance with a tight brown head. Malty flavors with hints of roasted barley. Notes of chocolate and licorice. Body was smooth and creamy. Very nice baltic porter.

ya know, not all that bad. Had this at the CU beer fest and it was most definately one of the best things being offered. Dark in color with a tan thin head. The nose is soft and malty with a touch of spice. The taste is smoothe and slightly hoppy underneath lots of coffee malts. Good overall,

This beer is very dark almost black in color with little to no head. it has a roasty chocolaty flavor with very little hop taste. this beer is very mild and quite drinkable! I liked this beer and is one of the better porters out there. cheers!

16.9 oz bottle. Best before 14/07/05. Pours a near-opaque black with thick creamy light-tan head. Aroma is strongly of anise, caramel, some roasty malts and a touch of hops. The licorice and caramel are there in taste along with some sweet malty flavors. Very smooth. Taste starts with some nice sweet roasty malts and finishes with a little kick of warming alcohol. Pretty good, but I’d have to be in the mood to drink more than a couple of these very sweet beers.

Pub Glass, Dark light head, this porter pours a black/mahogany. The aroma is the delicious scent of a roasted heath bar. The taste is slightly bitter from the dark grains
But notes of raisins and caramel round it out in the finish. A good beer
