Bottle, into a snifter. Deep black color, full but rather quickly dissipating coarse dark tan head. Wonderful, rich chocolate and raisins some smoke and roasted malts are on the nose. Flavors are similar, some dark brown sugar and a little wet wood as well. fairly sweet, even for a Baltic. Lively carbonation and a rather lighter body than others of the style. Lingering smokey slightly bitter trailer.

Bottle - pours a slightly hazy medium brown with a full yellowish-tan head. Lots of sweet brown-sugar and carmel aromas, with some apple butter and raisins. Light sweet flavor, figs, light brown sugar and raisons with a little toasted malt trailing. Some brown paper bag at the end but not obnoxious. Very little bitterness. Rather full bodied, but in a sweet almost sugary way.

Bottled 500ml. -Clear golden coloured, medium sized white head, lively carbonation, slight buttery honeyish nose. Sweet malty, mild hoppy and quite strong buttery taste with not so sweet but alcoholic notes. Nothing special but still drinkable for Polish standards.

Bottle 500ml. Very dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of dates, treacle, coffee. Taste is very sweet with dark sugars, dried and stewed fruits, soy sauce, sweet shop spices. Touches of Oloroso sherry are fine and are clearly part of the character of the beer. A little grassy bitterness struggles largely in vain against the sweetness. Pushing it on the sweetness for me, but worth it for the deep malt flavours.
