Vår 9% baltiske porter, brygget med en rik blanding av malter, gir dype lag av sjokolade og karamell, kysset med hint av kirsebær. Glatt og fyldig, den er balansert av den furuaktige kompleksiteten til Simcoe-humle med en ren, bitter finish.
That caramel and chocolate depth is dangerously smooth for 9% — I poured one after dinner and it drank like a dessert, then hit me right on schedule. The piney finish keeps it from being too sweet, which I appreciated.
The cherry undertones really come through as it warms, and that piney finish keeps the 9% from feeling heavy. Poured it after dinner and the chocolate-caramel depth made it a proper dessert beer.
That 9% ABV hits smoothly, but the chocolate and caramel malt depth is what keeps me coming back. Poured it for a friend who usually sticks to lighter beers and even they were impressed by how full-bodied it felt despite the strength.
