Nov 24, 2009 Pours a three finger light tan head that fades slowly, leaving a good lace. Black color no highlights. Light-medium carbonation and medium-heavy bodied. Sweet roasted caramel nose. Flavor is sweet roasted caramel with just the right amount of hops. Really good porter. Good price at $1.69 for a 500ml bottle from Manchester Wine and Liquors Manchester, CT.

Nov 10, 2009 Updated: Nov 11, 2009Bottle under the "Czarny Boss" label. I can tell right away that this is going to be a "controversial" beer. Poured into a snifter: very black. with very thin off-white head. A very pruny beer. Prune is heavy in the nose and taste and liquorish notes too. Caramel malts and a little toffee in there. Smoky and finishes not that bitter.
I’m a fan, but I’m weird and I like prune. This beer isn’t for everyone.
