Bottle from Bierland, pours espresso brown with a medium sized cafe-crema coloured head, nose is roast coffee, prunes, a little cocoa. Rich bodied, initially roast malt and coffee, then a sweetish fruity mid-body with sultana and toffee notes, and finally a dry-sweet and faintly hoppy finish with a hint of cocoa. The aftertaste is a little too syrupy, but the edge of burnt treacle and an emerging hop bitterness cuts it reasonably well.

Bottle. Big black beauty with a golden brown cream head. Roasted sugar, licorice, light orangepeel aroma. Dark chocolate, coffee, mellow molassis, licorice, moreish fruityness, aromatic finish. Chewy fiull body, mellow mouthfeel. Coffee retronasal. Really nice drinkable bock/baltic porter.

bottle, danke an pivnizub. Deep brown colour, large and creamy beige head. Looks and smells like a Baltic Porter. Full-bodied, dark chocolatey flavours with raisins, caramel, cocoa, bitter chocolate... Not too sweet, perfectly balanced and very velvety on the palate. Delicious!

Bottle: Deep ruby-amber coloured, stable and lacy creamy off-white head, molasses,dried fruits and dry toasted malt in the complex nose; moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour, medium to full bodied; lingering toasty-nutty finish, drier in the bitter-malty aftertaste. Very good Bock…
