2.8 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20Nothing outstanding. To me just a regular porter. Nothing distinguishes it from the lot.
3.3 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
500ml bottle at House of Beers in Krakow. Pours a black body with an inch thick, dense, creamy and foamy, brown head that dissipates slowly and leaves a nice lacing. Aroma is pretty sweet with a bunch of caramels and dark fruits. Some chocolate, a light roast, and a few earthy hints. Flavor is similar. Malty and sweet with a bunch of caramels and some chocolate, but a decent roast that prevents this from being too cloying. Some earth and butterscotch before this finishes dry and lightly bitter, but sweet and decently balanced. Fairly lengthy aftertaste following a smooth, medium-full body and a soft, creamy, moderate carbonation. Overall, a pretty good Baltic Porter. Fairly sweet, but never cloying. Not my favorite, but enjoyable.
