missing a rock?

Every day there's a new recipe, a new brewery, and I can find black beers to take me all the way to June!  I mean, there are still plenty of appetizing brews that aren't so nightish in appearance.  But, there just isn't anything like a fine stout or porter.  Be Hoppy has always had a selection of artsier and more daring beers, and this time there was an enticing imperial Baltic porter, showing off its curly dragons.  Trzech Kumpli's Ragnar looks like a good bet.

Rich looking, robust black beer with milk chocolate colored head.  Not especially aromatic, although there is a nice earthiness.  Sort of a coffee flavor, bittersweet, but it slides into a syrupier and more chocolate like experience.  Also kind of a smoky earth aftertaste develops after a few minutes.  It's a good, strong black beer, bringing up memories of crisp winter evenings, and northern climes.  There's even a little tickle of herb somewhere in the back, giving it a hint of witch's brew.  Definitely something different!
