Sep 8, 2008 Pours dark. Big tan head, nice lacing. Aroma is pretty straightforward, there’s malt in there and it’s fairly sweet. Flavor is quite nice, a little sweet, but it has some vinous notes and hides it’s alcohol (lower, granted) better than Okocim. Very enjoyable.

Sep 7, 2008 Nice dark brew with a thick tan head. This definitely wasn’t the best porter I have had but it was nothing to complain about. Caramel, chocolate taste. I wouldn’t go out of my way to drink this again but I wouldn’t complain if someone handed me one.

Sep 5, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a frothy tan head that leaves good lacing. The aroma is sweet caramel backed with dark fruits. Sweet flavors of caramel, molasses, and hints of roast. Medium body and sweet throughout. Nice porter!

Sep 4, 2008 1 pint .9fl oz Bottle: Pours deep brown w/ a nice brown head. Aroma is dominated by sweet malts w/ some caramel peeking through & a bit of grain. Flavor is heavy on the roasted malts. A bit on the sweet-side up front then a nice bitter bite. Caramel & burnt coffee w/ a little nip of alcohol present. Nice & smooth, me likey.

Sep 4, 2008 Pours black from the bottle with a ruby tint and soapy brown head. Smells of barley and alcohol (particularly as the beer warms) and tastes of smokey malts, powdered cocoa, and mild caramel. This won’t exactly put Russia on the brewing map, but it’s a solid effort and certainly worth trying.

Aug 31, 2008 (bottle) Clear, dark, almost black coloured hue with a ruby shine and a thick beige foamy head. Sweet, dark and roast-malty aroma with caramel, cacao and liquorice. Sweet and bitter flavour, almost full bodied with a calm and smooth carbonation. Roasty malty taste with chocolate, liquorice and traces of coffee; bitter-sweet and burnt malty finish with notes of alcohol and a moderate length. Not overly fine and a tad too sweet Porter but anyway a pretty quaffable one (18.08.08).

Aug 30, 2008 1 pint .9 fl oz bottle: Aroma is pretty decent raosted malt overtone, plumes, big on the roast, and a little bit bready. Appearance is a coca-cola dark brown almost black color with a thick tan head that lingers around for a while. Taste has got a nice roasted malt flavor, at first some off oxidization, then melds into a pretty decent aftertaste with the roasted malts coming to the forefront. Overall, Nice baltic porter and definately a good value. Cheers!
