(Bottle 33 cl) Courtesy of Thomas_E. Pours a cloudy, amber golden with tiny impurities. Small, rough, off-white head. Sweetish aroma of overripe fruit and alcohol. Quite full-bodied with a soft mouthfeel and a little low in carbonation. Sweetish, roasted malt accents and some overripe fruit. The finish is alcoholic with some bitternes. Nowhere close to being an Imperial Stout, as the back label claims. And actually closer to a Samichlaus-style Doppelbock than a Baltic Borter. But still quite an enjoyable beer. 281107

A hazy amber beer with a huge orange head. The aroma is primarily of alcohol, but is also spicy and has notes of oranges. The flavor is very sweet with a dry alcoholic end, where the alcohol burns a little. Somehow the body is thin - weird for such a strong beer.

Nice amber color and perlage. Malt aroma; Strong Lager taste, with more than a touch of alcohol; ends with just some caramel. Ways too expensive. Not a Porter.

Bottled. Copper colour. Aroma of dough and anise. Peppery and strong, yet mild and light bodied. Gently complex with bready finish. Odd and interesting.

Orange-copper colour. Toasty, bready aroma - actually does have a nose reminiscent of kvas. The palate shows some excellent baked notes, but no real structure...like from malt and hops. Different stuff, and probably requires a few bottles to get a grasp one what it is they are trying to do. Thanks Bov!
