4.2 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
Világos barnás-vöröses szín, áttetsző. Ujjnyi vastag, az utolsó kortyig kitartó, bézs hab. Élénk és összetett illat, ami édes és aszaltgyümölcsös, plusz a Vyskovi sörökre jellemzö kellemes "dohos pince",de csak finoman a háttérből. Sürü, olajos test. Az íze édes, karamell és mazsola. Hosszan cseng le és csak a legvégén támad intenzív komlóíz, ami száraz érzettel zárja le és kiegyensúlyozza édességét. Valóban ünnepi darab, de nehezen iható. Szerintem a 0.33-as adag akár két embernek is elég lehet.

My Bottom Line:
Lactose-like sweetness meets roasted and caramel malts in this silky, pastry-like Tmavé Specialni.
Further Personal Perceptions:
-A slice of foam sits atop the dark brown.
-That is one intense aroma!
-Sweetness can get overbearing after a few sips.
-Roasted malt bitterness lingers nicely, attempting to balance out the tentacular sugars.
On tap at Zly Casy, Praha.
3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20

3.3 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Bottle. Clear dark ruby-brown colour. Aroma fruity, higher alcohol. Taste sugary, caramel, fruity. Warm, higher ABV evident, though not unpleasant. I enjoyed it, though it is nothing exceptional. A bit too sugary.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
On tap at Pivovarsky Klub. Dark brown with a firm and lasting off-white head. The malty aroma has toffee and breadcrust, some brown sugar and a touch of diacetyl. Very sweet toffee and caramel flavour with molasses and brown sugar, slightly roasted with a touch of pine and a mild bitter finish. Too sweet for me, but true to the Baltic/Finnish examples of the style
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
bottle. dark brown porter with nice head but too long palate, sweet tones in taste.
2.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20
On tap at Zly Casy (02/03/13). Clear very dark brown pour with white head. Aroma is perfectly reminiscent of crčme brulée, sweet, lactose, caramelized sugar, burnt grain. Taste of crčme brulée, very roasty, some fruity notes, very sweet but not without a bitter roasty finish. Palate is silky, very sweet, full bodied and light carb. Unusual, not necessarily bad but a tad cloying.
