SETANTA (556), Allentown, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 5, 2006 Not quite as flavorful or well blended in flavor as other baltic porters, but nor bad overall. The richness of the munich malt seemed to stand alone from the roasted malts instead of them complimenting each other.
thomat (565), Göteborg, Sweden Sep 7, 2008 Dark, almost black with a thick tan head.
Malty and fruity notes. Sweet, malty and some sourness. Medium body with a bitter sweet aftertaste. drpimento (499), La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA Sep 3, 2008 Now here we have a remarkable beer. Abundance of character. all of the clasic baltic porter hallmarks coupled with individualistics such as roastiness, darker grains and perhaps a special yeastoid. Poured with a tan head, lots of lace and pitch black color. Opaque. perfect balance between bitter and sweet, with enough body to compliment the works. Bravo. almost robust enough to be too much of a beer for the session lablel. tough it out bro. AMN (98), Dublin, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 1, 2008 Thin brown head with a deep black body. Lots of chocolate/caramel malts in here. My only complaint is the heavy aroma of alcohol that overpowers some of the malt flavors. matt7215 (564), Cambridge, Ontario, Canada Aug 28, 2008 500ml bottle from premier gourmet. pours black with a lovely tan head. i couldnt ask for a better looking porter. aromas are thin. dark fruit and some coffee. flavours are similar with a bitter/tart/tin finish. not very enjoyable but not quite a drain pour. ill try again if it becomes availible locally other then that no way! fidel (147), Livermore, California, USA Aug 24, 2008 Dark brown, chocolate, caramel, roasted malts, molasses, little coffee, slight dark fruits, sweet, creamy, slight tart finish. $1.99
