Bottled 500ml. -as Grand Imperial Porter. Dark brown (almost black) coloured, medium sized pale brown head, vinous buttery chocolate nose. Roasted malt, dried fruits and licorice with notes of chocolate and toffee. Also some notes of overriped plums. Touch of smoke in the finish. Ok porter but Zywiec is still my number one.

Black color, big head, compact. Both aroma and flavor are very good, mixing strong chocolate and roasted malt, with a trace of oxidation and liquorice; the body is strong enough, with some residual sugars and malt; in the final there is more roasted malt. It reeminds me a powered up version of Dunkel. Well balanced but no thrills. Very good.

Bright chestnut-coloured beer, well-carbonated, under beige head. Caramel to the point of fake madeirisation; very sweet, and precious little else. Some oxydation in the taste, after all; again caramel, even treacle, with burning finish, grassy taste. Less sweet than the nose. Bit cloying, certainly; slick. Very sweet, and missing the complexity of a good German Bock. Many thanks to Stef C!

Bottle, 4.8%. Clear golden colour. Big stable white head. The flavour has quite a lot of aroma hop, flowery and slightly sweet.

Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of Anne-Mette. Pours a clear deep golden with an off-white head. Odd phenolic aroma. Solid body, sweet and honeyish, some solvents and herbs. No real bitterness. Not entirely pleasant. 251211
Bottle 50 cl. Courtesy of MiP. Clear golden with a white head. Aroma of butter and yeast. Medium body with a soft mouthfeel, sweet malts and again distinct buttery accents. Almost no bitterness. Interesting idea but poorly executed. 4/3/4/2/8=2.1 041008
