SEP-2018. Draft at BCBF 2018. Super hoppy and resiny. Very good. (I think the hopped up version of their porter have replaced their cmore classic version.) 7-3-8-4-16=3,8.
MAR-2016. BOTTLE 33 CL. Almost pitch black, but with pretty clear ruby highlights, nice beige head. Smells of coffee beans, dried dates, molasses and some fresh dates. The taste is smooth and balanced, starting with sweetened coffee, roasted coffee beans, moderate spicy bitterness. The carbonation is a bit prickly at first, but gets smoother with time. Pretty fine. 7-4-7-4-15=3,7.

BOTTLE 33 CL from Berero. Batch 82, ~3 weeks old. Clear deep amber, peachy head. Not super intense, but very well defined hoppy aroma - ranging from tart pale stone fruit (apricot peach) to lemony/pine-apple, light pine, light grassy/vegetal, supporting caramel and nice alcoholic spice. The taste is more malt-forward, with background hops, balanced piney bitterness. Medium body, good as a sipper, but not too sticky or cloying. Clean and well polished. Very nicely done and better than last winter. 8-4-8-4-16.
23-FEB-2016. BOTTLE 33 CL from Berero. Almost clear deep amber, light beige creamy head. Big malty nose, with grapefruit freshness and some tropical fruit supporting it. Similar flavour, big malts, moderate hops, string yet smooth grassy finish. Clean and smooth mouth feel. Quality stuff. 8-5-7-4-15=3,9

SEP-2019. Draft at BCBF. Hazy golden, white head. Dull fruit and cereals, dank herbs. Similar taste - a bit dull and undefined - vague maltiness and heavy woody / grassy hops. Problems. 3.3/5.
18-JUN-2018. DRAFT at Beer Zone, Iași. Murky straw, white head. Lots of dank cirus piney hops, almost no sugars. Really big on dank almost weedy hops, but it's just to hop-stupid - no supporting malts whatsover. But if you're a die hard hophead - you're gonna enjoy it nevertheless. 7-3-7-4-17=3,5
29-SEP-2017. DRAFT at Ground Zero Bar. Hazy golden, Creamy off-white head. Nice ripe orange, dankness and some juicy pale malts. Similar taste, juicy citrus, citrus peel, some dankness, supporting malts. Very good. 7-4-7-4-15=3,7
14-FEB-2016. BOTTLE 33 CL. Slightly hazy amber, big off-white head. The aroma is clean and „correct”, but not too big - hints of citrus and pine, mint? The malts are quite subdued - some minty lollipop maybe? The taste, on the other hand, haz clear fresh pale malty note, followed by a moderate and smooth yet pungent bitter finish with hints of citrus and grass. Smooth and easy drinking body. Might not be earth shattering, but certainly a high quality beer. 6-4-7-4-14=3,5

BOTTLE 33 CL. Clear dark copper, beige head. The aroma is full of malts, burnt sugar, a dash of grassy hops far behind. Taste: again, rich malty, grassy bitter finish.

Many thanks to ciocanelu for this bottle. The beer starts intense roasted. Very fresh with lots of dark roast. Intense dry roasted, even dusty. The bitterness is on a moderate level and fits in well to the bitter roasted dark malt. The aftertaste is long, roasted chocolate, very nice. Intense bitter dark roasted Porter!

Many thanks to ciocanelu for this bottle. The beer starts fresh and malty with floral piney hops. Not too dry but lots of dry roasted malt together with nice bitter floral hops. Very nice stuff. The aftertaste is dry and fresh malty, roasted hints with dry and bitter fresh floral hops. Great!
