Pours black, not much foam. Smell is smokey, roasty. Mild booze. Taste is full, roasty. medium smokeyness. Chocolatty, mild rum, but not as boozy as expected. Nice, even I can handle this amount of smoke.

Opaque dark brown beer, small bubbly pale tan head. Fluffy palate, slightly soft and semi dry, decent fine carbonation. Airy dark malts, a little dark malt cream. Soft white smoke, nice, my kinda smoke levels. Modest tingly spice. Smooth chocolate, fruity and well integrated with the fruity rum. Finishes smooth. A deft beer this, full of flavour but with all flavours in good balance. I can think of many brewers who would have made a hash of this. Not so Widawa. Very nicely done.

Draught @ Dynamo, Brussels. Smooth, roasty and sweetish with some rum, wood, oak, chocolate and vanilla, hints of earthiness and licorice. Quite complex and tasty.

375ml bottle [#312]. Jet black colour with slightly late awakening, thick, frothy to creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, tan head. Smoky and roasty, chocolately, dark malty aroma, notes of birch wood, dark chocolate, a touch of peat, asphalt, blueberry overtones, the intensity of initially cautious caramel and rum notes increases with warm-up. Taste is mildly smoky, chocolately dark malty, notes of molasses, caramel, rum, dark chocolate, peat, treacle, birch wood; oily texture, gentle carbonation, smooth and soft palate, lingering, minimally sticky, sweet-ish finish. Rich and intense, very well balanced and harmonious, relatively easy drinkable and in no way overdone - the rum BA brings the whole thing to perfection.

Butelka 375ml (BB 31.12.2018). Czarne, nieprzejrzyste z cienkim, brązowym kożuszkiem piany, która opadając wyraźnie oblepia ścianki szkła. Aromat intensywny, głównie wędzony z nutami szyneczki, gorzkiej czekolady i delikatną nutą słodkiego alkoholu w tle. W smaku słodkawe z wyraźną wędzonką, która w połączeniu z alkoholem, nomen omen bardzo dobrze ukrytym, przyjemnie szczypie w język. Po kilku łykach czuć wyraźne rozgrzewanie od środka, bardzo przyjemne. Piwo jest gęste, oleiste i mimo delikatnego szczypania na języku gładkie, świetnie ułożone, idealne piwo na świętowanie 5-tej rocznicy. Nic tylko czekać kolejne 5 lat. Gratulacje Wojtek!
