Aroma of coffe, toffe and metal. Strong black apperance. The taste is a bit bitter and souer with hints of metal. The alcohol is very present in the aftertaste.

A nose of malt, elderflower and minerals. Not too pleasant, really. A raw taste of coffe and tobacco. Aftertaste is dry and acidic. Alcohol is quite present. I don’t understand the high rating. A bad bottle?

33cl bottle from 2009. I do not understand how this beer could get a 3.8 score. This beer is UGLY!!! Do not buy it. If you wish to buy a porter beer, simply try Ciechan or Kozlak.

Keg (yes keg), 500ml, at U Kakpra, Krakow. Dark brown to black with tan head. Big heavy beer, lots of fruit initially, then into a tarry, alohol, liquorice experience. There is always an underlying sweetness, I suppose this comes with the territory. Quite nasal in the close. Decent beer.

Pours a thick black color with a nice looking beige/brown head. Heavy chocolate and coffee aroma. I had to drink this beer fast because I was in a hurry, so I didn’t get its full effect, but nevertheless, it was a fine brew. Rather sweet, with a lot of chocolate flavors. Thick and a little syrupy, but still smooth. Lots of roasted malts of course, throughout.
