May 16, 2004 Beautiful beer, when i first tried it, i felt it was going to be nothing special, but with each sip, paradoxically it got batter and better... good polish beer, the tradition lives...

Jul 8, 2003 Dark brown/almost black w/ burgundy hue. Dark beige head. Big roasty, chocolately aroma w/ cherries, figs, & olives(!?). Thick, sweet (syrup) feel. Robust roasty, chocolately flavour w/ rich coffee, cherries, figs, &, yes, olives (but in a good way). To echo Doug--Superb!

Jul 7, 2003 Strong licorice nose, an especially bitter aroma (my first 10 for aroma.) Ruby, with small toffee head. Coffee, candy flavour, followed by more coffee. Fairly full bodied. Superb! Thanks for bringing this one back Radek!

Dec 6, 2005 The Lure:
Classy berries wrapped in roastiness. Dry vinosity hugging sweet molasses. Elaborate yet sagacious.
The Festivities:
Fruitiness is marvelously blended into a cream with the roasted malt flavor and bitterness. Some dryness ensues, but caramel maltiness is prolonged into a confident position. A baltic porter of the utmost refinement.
Transcendence:
A castle on a cliff, piercing the fog.

Jul 7, 2003 Dark brown, mahogany, cherry wood. Malt main frame, rich black chocolate in background. Lighter at front but then it hits with superb roastiness, chicory and rich coffee (a la Paradiso). Very well constructed, bravo brewmaster, very smart. One of the best Baltic’s...

Aug 13, 2003 Very dark auburn color, almost red. The nose is sweet, brown sugar and malt. Touches of smoke and hints of fruit in the nose as well. The body is big! Chocolate, very roasty and finishing appetizingly hoppy. Big beer, big baltic, just the way I like it.
