Jan. ’16. On tap at the Richtar Jakub, Bratislava. It poured a pitch black body with a small brown head. Very nice roasted malt aroma, caramel, coffee and smoked meat plus cheese. Very nice bacon flavor with caramel, cooked dark fruit, honey, licorice, cocoa and coffee notes. Full bodied and creamy on palate, not too harsh, roasted coffee porter-ish. Quite long smoked finish, lightly acidic and sweet honey, cooked fruits and caramel. Very nice, I’m glad to have chosen it there!

Palate was medium bodied with medium carbonation. Flavours were smoke, burnt malts, smoked ham, sweetness and bitterness. Aftertaste was smoky and bitter. A nice smoked porter(?).

On tap at Stupavar Pub Bratislava. Black coloured, medium sized creamy beige head that stays for a while, hops in the nose. Roasted malt, citrusy hoppy, notes of chocolate and touch of coffee with smooth and rather bitter finish. Nice one.

Bottle thanks to Nikos! I sorta dropped this one on its cap, so there was an impressive amount of gushing, but not the beer’s fault. Pours hazy amber, long lasting medium beige head, dissipates slowly with nice lacing. Aroma is for all intents and purposes a wild beer - funky, oaky, light smoke and lemon. Flavor is quite different, not funky or tart, light sweet, light bitter, oak, light smoke, toffee, perhaps a bit of acidity. Medium body. Certainly not what I would expect of a Polotmavy, but I enjoyed this one.

50cl bottle, from my Secret Santa, thanks MisoW! Pours black in color with a thick off white head. Meaty smoky aroma, some slight tartness, berry like thing in the back. Quite meaty smoked brew. Tart berries in the flavor as well. I like the smoke, feels authentic and all but the tartness is not very nice.
