Best before December 2017 (I think?) - poured from a 500mL bottle into my Samuel Smith nonik.

Clear burnt umber liquid with auburn or rufous highlights and a fat beige finger up top. Thick soapy lacing; very good retention.

Malty, slightly grainy aroma with hints of chocolate, ashtray, and plum.

Sweet palate entry, brown bread and golden syrup and leaf litter. Clean yeast profile suggests this may be bottom fermented/lagered - the character is closer to a baltic porter than an Irish stout. Medium finish suggesting cream, chocolate syrup, and toasted buckwheat.

Creamy, rich mouth-feel, though not heavy or oily. Alcohol is present but not too hot.

While really not a bad pint, this is a simply laughable example of the style, and not as good as the better Polish baltic porters which it has more in common with.

Pours clear, dark brown in color with minimal head. Taste is roasted malt and smoke. Medium bodied and carbonation, sweet and roasty. Makes for a solid stout.

Head cream, beige, medium bubble, glass build- up nicely. The aroma of roasted malt, caramel, very delicate coffee and plum jam. The first sip and feel that beer is very thin, watery. Taste is the exact copy of the flavors, the first play malt and caramel. In the background, a very, very delicate coffee substitute. After warming returns fried plum. Gentian very nicely balances the sweetness of caramel. And that's it. I have a feeling that "my" Belfast should be quite different, fuller, more coffee and all the more ...

Bottle somewhere in Poland. From notes.

A - Poured a blackish red colour with no head but a ring around the top, leaving no lacing. No visible carbonation.

S - Chocolate dominates with some roasted malts in there too.

T - Dark malts, roasted notes, and some chocolate. Maybe a cola element too.

M - Quite carbonated somehow. Maybe I just couldn't see it. Medium body. Needs to mellow out on the carbonation.

O/D - Meh. An ok beer but nothing special. A welcome change from the typical lagers but for a stout it was nothing special.
