Spiced Baltic Porter - made with black pepper and infused with cedar wood spirals.

If – for whatever obscure reason – you ever find yourself walking alone through the Biebrza Marshes, a vast wetland in northeastern Poland, may we suggest that you turn back and return to civilization – fast. And if you walk these marshlands late at night, you are either a fool or simply suicidal, since the chance of getting out of there alive is close to nil. Walking in this area is strenuous, with your boots constantly being sucked into the muddy soil. So of course, you are tempted to rest by a stream or even a small lake, and that is where you may likely encounter the Wodnik – a Polish water demon. A Wodnik lives in a crystal palace at the bottom of their claimed body of water. But when a human approaches, the Wodnik will leave his home and face the intruder. Naturally you’ll be in shock when the face of this slimy, green-tinted old fella breaks the water, but his gentle character and soft-spoken voice may calm you down a bit. And exactly then, when your mental guards are lowered, that’s when the Wodnik will grab you, and drag you down to his icy palace, smiling all the way. A palace from which no human has ever returned.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours dark brown, with fine brown foam. Aroma is of cacao powder, a bit of vanilla. Body is smooth, a tiny bit oily, with delicate carbonation. Taste is a little toasty and roasty bitter, with some chocolate sweetness too. Final is fairly long, enjoyable, slightly hot.

On tap @ Ghetto Something. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, alcohol and pepper. Pours almost black color with thin creamy light brown head and fair lacing. Taste starts with rich roasted malt, bitter chocolate and dried fruit, following is earthy, peppery and woody, mouthfeel is smooth but rather dry, while finish is heavy bitter. Full body, oily texture and soft carbonation in palate. Holy woter…
