Jun 14, 2008 Share by Fidel, nice deep brown pour with a small cream colored head. Nose is sweet maltiness with some dark chocolate. The flavor adds a bit more complexity with some licorice, caramel and dried fruit. Prune like in a good way. Good sippin’ porter!

Jun 11, 2008 Deep brown pour with a large beige head. Roasted malts, molasses, milk, a little vanilla, toffee, and I’m pretty sure I picked up some ham as well. I was a little shocked at how one-sided the flavor turned out to be. Very intense molasses, light roasted malts, and some bittersweet cocoa. A bit thin in the mouth. A nice brew but I wish the flavor had the same qualities of the aroma. Still, quote tasty.

Jun 7, 2008 Bottle. Pours a dark brown-to-black with a tan head. Nose is of roast malt with some smoke. Taste is coffee, chocolate and raisins. Mouthfeel was medium-to-thin and a bit watery. So-so for a porter.

May 31, 2008 Reddish brown with a slowly diminishing light tan head. Aroma of caramel, roasted malts and coffee. Taste of caramel, chocolate, raisons and mild alcohol. Medium body is smooth and creamy but it was a step below some of the better Baltic porters I’ve had recently.

May 29, 2008 Updated: Jul 17, 2008Bottle, Light cookie aroma with a definite tinge of alcohol. They can keep this beer in Russian. Not worthy of a average of 3.49. This beer basically sucks. Do not believe the hype.
