pours dark brown, beige/mocha head. Aroma is definitely roasted and malty with hints of dark fruits. Flavor, fruity; prune, currants with possibly apple, some brown sugar and malts, light spices. Caramel profile is not dominant but a big part of the mouthfeel with a nice thin hoppy finish.

Bottle. Pitch black. Tall, fine, thick head. Not a strong aroma. Roasted malt, maybe a bit sweet but seems dry. Strong malt flavor. Very well roasted, very burnt. Quite sweet, with strong coffee taste. A bit too sweet for me, but loaded with flavor. Long-lasting burnt aftertaste, dry in the finish. Great malt taste.

Bottle shared by phaleslu, Thanks Peter! Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Notes of roasted malts, malty gross coffee, malt balls, dark fruits, earth, and grain. Some light semen notes. Something about this was a little offputting.

Bottle from The Party Source. Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of roast, malt, chocolate, dark fruits, sugar, and pinch of coffee grounds. The flavor follows suit, with more sweet malt and some caramel and alcohol. Medium-bodied, very smooth, and slightly syrupy. Roasty on the finish and in the aftertaste, also some alcohol. I tried this a little after the Utenos Porter and this is an improvement. I worried this would be crap after seeing another Baltika beer in a plastic bottle at the store, assuming this was just the big Russian brewer owned by a conglomerate; the last part may be true, but this was not bad at all. I’d go with an Okocim Porter over this, though.

Bottle. Thanks Dolle! Pours deep reddish brown coloured with a small light brown coloured head. Aromas of coffee, licorice, caramel and some alcohol. Flavours of sweet malt, caramel, dark fruit and chocolate. A decent brew. Well done Carlsberg..
