BOSS Kozlak Eksportowy

Brewed by BOSS Browar Witnica
Style: Dunkler Bock
Witnica, Poland

Bottle via trade with kenb - Thanks Ken! - Pours dark brown with a pretty good sized offwhite head. Good aroma of roasted malts, caramel, and some raisin. Flavor is caramel, liccorice, roasted malt and maybe even a touch of candi sugar. Medium bodied and a little sugary on the palate..

Bottled, 5.8%. Clear dark brown coloured, very small head. Sweet malty nose. Very sweet caramel malty flavour, some notes of liqourice. Not sure what to think of this, it’s like something went wrong in the brewing process.

Bottle. Brown/dark amber with a beige head. Aromas are sweet mollasses with sweet, flat cola notes. Malty. Flavours are sweet, sugary malts with chocolate and some soap. Earthy light roast notes with winter fruit. Too sweet for my taste.

Bottle 50cl. A dark brown beer i think by its, sweetness, must be a Dubbelbock. Some caramel hints, a nice foamy head.

Bottle 0,5l at The St Albans Beer Festival 27 Sep 06. Dark brown coloured - almost black. A large yellow tanned head. Lasting malty flavour. Sweet. Nothing else. No bitterness.

500ml bottle picked up at the foreign beer bar, St. Albans Beer Festival ’06. Shared with Finn. Very nice appearance: Dark rusty coloured body under a dark yellow foamy head. Aroma is also inviting with its sweet malty spiciness. Flavour starts with notes of cherry sweetness, but turns out to be too candy sweet after a few sips (27.09.2006).

Pours a dark amber/dark brown. The appearance changes drastically depending on the lighting + amount in glass. Smells sweet and cerealy, like Golden Pheasant N/A. Carmel and toffee notes. Smells better than it tastes. In small sips it tastes kind of roasty and refreshing but in large gulps reminds me of Eclipse coffee syrup. Not revolting but I wouldn’t drink another by choice.

Courtesy of Kenb. Sweet breads and caramel with mild stewed raisin notes and molasses. Body is a dark amber that goes full brown in dark light. The tan head is very creamy, fluffy and fairly lasting. Molasses, brown sugar, raisins, rum raisin, dark breads and sweet breads, mild chocolate notes sugar sweetened blueberries and hints of other dark fruits. Very sweet and malty, but I rather like the flavor and would definitely keep this around for occasional drinking.
