Zapach: czekolada, kawa i ciemne pieczywo. Smak: słodowe, chlebowe, kawowe i kolowe. Dość wytrawne. Goryczka wysoka.

Bottle. Black color, brown head. Flavor full of toasted malts, chocolate, biscuits, coffee, molasses. Sweet taste with a bitter balance. Dense silky texture, long finish a bit smoked. Very tasty, solid body, flavored, light salted. Super smooth, juicy.

Nice roasted porter. Good dark choc,some burnt coffee.Try by the fire
It pours black with a large dark tan head. It has the aroma of smoke, dark chocolate, dried fruit and espresso. It is a very rich tasting beer. I taste chocolate, espresso, smoke, raisins, prunes and a wonderful roasted malt flavor. This beer is rather wonderful and I am looking forward to drinking more beer from this brewery. Highly recommended.

33cl bottle from hopt.it, France. Pours dark, with fine, light brown foam. Aroma is coffee, a little vanilla. Body and carbonation are average. Taste is moderately sweet, with some roasty feeling. Final is kind of short.

Slight smoke creates a generous beige meringue head of rich fine bubbles. Sticky lacing over a blackish fluid. Roasted malt scents. Dark fruit. Chocolate taste with sweet burnt flavors of smokey coffee and morning toast. Head retention. The subtle climb of alcohol. Carbonation. Dry finish.
Bottle. Black pour. Aroma of creamy chocolate, mocha coffee, licorice, soft smoke, caramel, dates and lots of malt. Taste has bitter mocha coffee, chocolate, licorice, caramel, hopjesvla, soft smoke, rich malt and dates. Nice malty flavors, this is good stuff.
Pours black with a thin but creamy tan head. Aroma of mocha. Notes of toffee, chocolate and coffee. Mild with a bitter finish. Smooth but a little bland.

0,33l bottle from Die Bierothek store in Essen, drinking 4/10/2021 BB 02/11/2023 Pours a really dark, would say black body with good amount of creamy, frothy brown foam on top and great lacing. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolte and coffee, some smoke, raisins and nuts. Taste is, for such a powerful aroma surprisingly sweet with roasted malt, coffee, good sweet chocolate, raisins and licorice, good if not too strong bitter and a decently dry, lightly hoppy finish with notes of coffee and milk chocolate. Medium body with smooth oily texture and average carbonation. Really tasty, easy and enjoyable, really good porter.
From a bottle at an Icelandic restaurant in Pleasanton CA. Pours a dark cola with a tan head. Aromas are of smoke and nuts. Flavors are bitter roast. Nice porter.
This was decent. Roasted malt base with a hint of coffee. Nice dark color with a tan head. Moderate flavor profile.
almost opaque, with medium carbonation. toasted malt barley aroma with java and cocoa. Espresso and dark chocolate flavor with roasted bready finish.
Dark, roasty, toasty and chocolatey on the nose. Powerful.
Very dark brown pour, close to black. Firm beige head, high retention, beautiful laces on the glass.
Bitter, lot of toasted bread and roasted cacao beans, dark malts, coffee notes. Heavenly for who likes dark malty drinks!
Medium body, medium carbonation, very smooth and easy to drink.
A very solid classic style drop, tasty, rich, rustic, robust, Viking. I remember I had this years back and it was very herbal not very enjoyable, now the recipe (or my palate) must have changed and it's a bomb!
Black with a thin beige head. Aroma is roasted malts. Taste is malt, roast, licorice with a gentle bitterness.
Pours a dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of roasted malts and a hint of molasses. Medium body. Smooth roasted taste with some notes of dark chocolate. Finishes with a lightly dry aftertaste. Not too dry. Flavors are not bold but still fairly enjoyable. Light lingering roasty taste. Better than some other Baltic Porters I have had.
Family Mart summer beer campaign - small can. Aroma: yeasty coffee. Appearance: clear americano, one finger tan head. Palate: medium-bodied and oily, average carbonation, malty at the finish. Taste: medium bitter with sweet notes. Malt loaf, coffee. Drinkable [and I can personally recommend Akureyri as a weird but interesting place to visit - in summer of course...]
12 ounce can. Dark pour. Medium to thin body. Taste of coffee and chocolate with some bitterness. Pretty decent overall.

Taste of roasted malt, toffee, dark fruit, roast coffee and cocoa with a sweet caramel finish.
Medium/full body and medium carbonation.
An interesting combination of roastiness, bitterness and sweetness. Right tasty, too.
Can. Pours black with a nice tan head. Aroma of coffee, chocolate and roasted malts. Flavor was roasty and earthy with black coffee, dark chocolate, toffee and raisins. A decent porter
Can. Big pour with a giant head. Aroma is coffee-heavy. Same with the flavor profile, thick with dark roast, maybe a tingle of baking chocolate. As advertised. (#7951, 4/2021)
