Stu Mostów WRCLW Baltic Porter Salted Caramel Nitro

Leave a comment

Brewery: Browar Stu Mostów
Country: Poland
ABV: 9.1%
Style: Porter – Baltic
Other Notes: 40 IBUs

Brewer Description: (from website) The intense, malty aroma of the Baltic Porter extractive base is enhanced by the addition of caramelised sugar in the form of roasted caramel and non-iodised rock salt. In this way, we have created an exceptionally delicious and aromatic combination, which is bound into a dessert-like whole by the velvety texture obtained through nitrogen saturation!

My ratebeer.com rating: 3.9

Intro: A 330ml bottle, with a best before date of 23rd December 2023. Poured into a snifter glass.
Appearance: Dark dark brown to black in colour with a thin tanned head that dissipated quickly, but left some nice lacing.
Aroma: Roasted malt, chocolate, sponge cake, caramel, brown sugar, honey.
Taste: Sweet, sweet malt, chocolate, caramel, brown sugar, vanilla, cream.
Mouthfeel: Smooth, medium to full bodied, with soft carbonation.
Overall: Very nice aroma, but for the taste, with ‘salted caramel’ in the name, I get no salt at all, which was unfortunate, as it would have helped balanced out the sweetness, that I felt was a little strong.

Stu Mostów WRCLW Imperial Pastry Stout French Toast Maple Syrup Vanilla Cinnamon Nitro

Leave a comment

Brewery: Browar Stu Mostów
Country: Poland
ABV: 10%
Style: Stout – Pastry Imperial
Other Notes: 25 IBUs

Brewer Description: (from website) Brewed to try to emulate the worldwide breakfast treasure – French toast. We recreated all the traditional flavors by adding milk sugar (lactose), maple syrup, Madagascar vanilla beans and a touch of cinnamon. Finally, we saturated it with nitrogen to enhance the dessert feeling and top the beer with fine bubble foam. It is going to be thick, creamy and… extremely (pastry) delicious!

Intro: A 330ml bottle, with a best before date of 6th May 2023. Poured into a snifter glass.
Appearance: Black in colour with a thin tanned head that dissipated fairly quickly while leaving some sparse spotty lacing.
Aroma: Sweet malt, cinnamon, vanilla, maple syrup, molasses, very light roast, with notes of chocolate.
Taste: Sweet, chocolate, wafer, vanilla, maple syrup, molasses, cinnamon.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, smooth, medium to full bodied, with soft carbonation.
Overall: A nice sipper that’s probably on the edge of being too sweet for me. The cinnamon is also a bit overpowering. But it does have a great aroma, and is very smooth.

Leave a comment

Brewery: Browar Stu Mostów
Country: Poland
ABV: 11.7%
Style: Stout – Russian Imperial
Other Notes: 60 IBUs, 6th Anniversary

Brewer Description: (from website) Imperial Stout B.A. is our birthday tradition – this year we used the addition of peanut butter and Four Roses Bourbon barrels, which gave the aromas of vanilla, coconut, spices and of course – American whiskey! Nitrogen saturation smoothed out its texture and perfectly blended with malty aromas, creating incredibly tasty, dessert effect!

Intro: A 330ml gold waxed bottle, 6th Anniversary, 2020 vintage, with a best before date of 4th December 2023. Poured into what I guess is a water glass (being all that I could find at the hotel late at night).
Appearance: Black in colour with a very thin tanned head that dissipated fairly quickly while leaving some sparse lacing.
Aroma: Peanut, peanut butter, chocolate, light roast, bourbon, brown sugar, vanilla.
Taste: Roasty, chocolate, moderate sweetness, caramel, dark fruit, prunes, plum, brown sugar, bourbon, peanut.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, full bodied with soft carbonation.
Overall: Definitely a sipper with interesting aroma and flavours. Peanut notes were quite pronounced, but I would have preferred if it was more peanut butter instead, as per the name.

My rating: 4
My beeradvocate.com rating: 4.39
My ratebeer.com rating: 4.3

Intro: A 330ml bottle, with a best before date of 23rd December 2023. Poured into a snifter glass.
Appearance: Dark dark brown to black in colour, with a thin brown head that disappeared quickly, while leaving nice spotty lacing.
Aroma: Roasty, dark malt, coffee, chocolate, wafer biscuit, with light nutty, raisin and vanilla notes.
Taste: Roasty, bitter, dark chocolate, coffee, biscuit, nutty, hazelnut, light caramel sweetness, and notes of vanilla. Finish is an enjoyable lasting bitterness.
Mouthfeel: Creamy, velvety, smooth, medium to full bodied with soft carbonation.
Overall: Unfortunately I did not know that this was a nitro beer until after it was poured as the word ‘nitro’ was not so obvious on the bottle to me. Therefore I didn’t do the aggressive vertical pour and didn’t get as much of the nice tiny bubbles and cascading effect as I could have. Having said that, this was a great beer, with wonderful bitterness and strong coffee and chocolate flavours.
