For her alcohol % and heaviness, she managed to maintain a strong almost rum-like switness while containing her bitter side as the proud black beer she is.

Best damn beer in the Czech Republic, Primator 24 Double at 10,5 %. It is strong, and it is sweet. I love it! Before Pilsner dominated the industry, starting in the early 1800s, all Czech beer was dark. How I wish that was still true. I live in Ostrava, and this is my beer of my choice. I will sometimes drink a couple in a day, followed up later by vodka or whiskey mixed with Kofola. Let's celebrate this wonderful piece of our Czech heritage. If you are not Czech, well, hell, celebrate it just the same. Na zdraví!

(500 ml bottle - thanks to JensenTaster). Black (= very dark brown) colour, moderate tan head. Aroma of lightly roasted malts, tar and dark chocolate. Notes of smoke and woodwork. Flavour is rich, malty and full of molasses. Very sweet, too sweet in my book - nearly sticky. The 10% ABV is extremely well hidden behind the overwhelming sweetness, could (nearly) pass for a 1.7% ABV Danish "hvidtøl"! The Danes might use it to put hyper-active children to sleep on Christmas eve! Despite the sweetness, I kind of like it, due to its very full mouthfeel. A love-hate relationship, you might say.

Bought at a supermarket in Olomouc (Moravia, Czech Republic). Half liter bottle poured into a mug.
-Pitch black colour of the liquid. Huge foam head but not purely white but browny.
-Floral smell. Coke smell in reality. Sweet. Also the coffee can be felt.
-Coffee and tofee taste. Superb taste. Sweet and thick.
-Creamy feel. Full bodied.
Reminds me to Belgian Triple/Quadruples but creamy.
I didn't know this style. it is just to drink one but it is superb. I highly recommend it.

This is a great beer/imperial baltic porter/russian stout/whatchamacallit. Had some doubts about Primátor though, their IPA wasn't that much of a classic - but that wasn't a surprise as we are talking about a Czech brewery after all.
This time they came up with something that is really impressive: from its black color to its intensive taste. It looks pitch black when poured though but when looking into the glass it feels somewhat porter-ish, with an off white, creamy head.
Then off to the taste. Sipping it it feels like coffee - and toffee all of a sudden, quite creamy and then its all about malts and sweetness. Sweet barley or sweet caramel malts take over, actually very sweet for a moment but not too much to make you sick. Still on the good side.
Then comes the icing on the cake, the 10% of alcohol that finishes all off with a slight booziness and cuts off the excessive sweetness, makes it feel like a turbo-malted caramel liquor.
And yes, it gives you a kind and warm feeling. Good to drink when you're down or depressed. Quite a good one this Primator Double is.

I've Had this at least twice and have re-rated based on 10/13/16 tasting.
Dark and minimal lace, I also find this undistinguished in the nose.
But its sweetness comes through in the taste and, this, I actually like more than a few of the other reviews who want more bitterness from either hops or tasted malts. While the alcohol surprises me, it is warming... a job of this style of porter.
Reviewed in the "1001 list, this arguably should not be on the list because it does not distinguish itself enough and merely appeals to a narrow range of sweet people like me... and even I may not finish it for fear of getting too sweet.
