taste is a touch on the sugary side with a butterscotch toffee character. some interesting fruit notes with a raisin and overripe plums.
finish is stout-like with a lasting bitterness. quite good but the syrupy sweetness lets it down. smith4498 (912), Miami, Florida, USA

| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 6/10 | 4/5 | 14/20 | Dec 9, 2002 This grew on me. Pours black as night with a nice tannish head. When cold, the shock of alcohol hits you. It tastes more than 7%. As it warms, nice coffee tones emerge and it begins to mellow. Slight sweetness follows before a nice well rounded finish. This is a nice well-balanced product from Russia, and I thought they only made Vodka.... Zach Diesel (907), Portland, Oregon, USA

| 3.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 7/10 | 3/5 | 8/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 1, 2009 Pours with a very small tight head with a deep brown almost black color. The aroma is very sweet and malty with some molasses and chocolate. The flavor has notes of plum, nuts, berries, and chocolate. The beer is overall pretty sweet but has enough dryness and alcohol to provide the needed balance.
