Bottle split at Same Krafty Vis-a-Vis, Warsaw, 08/04/17. Rich mahogany brown topped with a decent tan coloured swirl. Nose is a little musty and oxidised, toffee, dusty fruits, charr, roasted tones. Taste comprises fruit cake, toffee, charr, cocoa powder, black peppery spice. Full bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close with a gentle warming boost. Passable number ... clearly doesn't age gracefully judging from the oxidised nose ... still sippable but didn't live up to the price and the fancy bottle!

Butelka 330ml (BB 12.06.2018). Niemal czarne z rubinowymi refleksami pod światło. Piana beżowa, całkiem obfita choć niezbyt trwała, średnio-oczkowa z delikatnym acz wyraźnym efektem krążkowania. Aromat suszonych owoców, rodzynek, lekko winny, lekko utleniony. W smaku półsłodkie z wyraźnymi nutami owocowymi jak w aromacie i delikatnym efektem utlenienia, nieco jak miód pitny. Piwo jest średnio treściwe, gładkie ze świetnie ukrytym alkoholem, który tylko delikatnie rozgrzewa od środka, ale ma się wrażenie, że brakuje mu nieco ciała. Pije się powoli ale z dużą dawką przyjemności a kilka miesięcy oczekiwania na swoją kolej chyba tylko wyszło mu na dobre.

Black appearance, the aroma is of dried plums and burnt biscuites, some hint f chocoalte and honey note on the back, the latter probably because of aging. Very well balanced, full and sweet in taste, a great baltic porter. Generally its a great beer but for this price for this small quantity its definietely too much. Its not a best baltic porter yet it costs almost as if it was. If you have money You can try. However You can get better Porters for less money.

Barwa ciemno brunatna, rubinowe refleksy. Piana beżowa, dość szybko opada, ładnie oblepia szkło. W aromacie wyraźna przypieczona skórka od chleba i chleb ze śliwką. W smaku duże zaskoczenie, czekolada deserowa, po czasie kawa i czekolada już gorzką. Bez wątpienia jeden z lepszych porterów bałtyckich.
