Taste: Roasted, dates, toffee
Notes: Often called the Polish Brewing Treasure, this style was created in the 19th century as a continental version of the famous British porters. Brewed with Munich, Pilsner and dark roasted specialty malt to create a deep, malty flavor with a noticeable roastiness with flavors of licorice and toffee.

Brighton draught, 4/2/25.
As pictured.
Toast and fig with chewy raisin and a touch of smoke. Clean and fairly rich as it warms up.
Very flavorful, unless you have a weak palate. Rich and chewy with deep malt but light very balancing acidity showing prune, caramel, black pepper and toast. Hint of smoke with long fig and vanilla. Not a beer for your average ticker who can't identify great beers unless they beat you over the head with huge flavors (solidfunk). But for others, this is clean, balanced, rich and sublime.

Can. Poured a dark brown, black color with a small tan head. Aroma was chocolate, dark fruit. Flavor was dark fruits, raisin. Creamy roasted notes. Pretty good stuff. At DCBeer share.

Not super thick, not a ton of flavour. Roast, caramel. Dark brown pour with decent mocha head. Bittersweet finish. Shared at tasting.

Pours mahogany tinged dark brown into a willi. Mocha head with good retention recedes to coat surface. Dark chocolate, date and fig aromas. Soft and thick with sweet date, fig and molasses upfront turning to dark chocolate and licorice in the soft, lasting finish.
