smells a bit like copper or is that just me. looks lovely biggest surprise from this beer is that for such a high alcohol content its very well balanced a massive burst of flavors which doesnt stay in the mouth a lovely roasted sweet aftertaste. i dont agree that its weak but for such a strong kick at the start the subtle aftertaste is a bit wierd. strong tastes of coffee, chocolate and alcohol an excellent porter to be had with respect very easy to drink yet keeps itself interesting.

Burnt chocolate and maybe a little fruit? Not bad, but fairly weak flavor for a porter.

Barely transparent, just light enough to let a ray of light through. Intense maltiness and smoke on the nose. Deep chocolate character in the flavor, along with residual sweetness and alcohol, with a long, anise finish. My first beer in the style but I’m already impressed with the depth of flavor.

Deep dark red-brown with a small short lived tan head. Malty aroma which was some what sweet. Smokey coffee taste with a definite sugar aspect that come together as a good porter.

500 ml. bottle. Pours a thin mocha head, with some lacing, over a dark, slightly reddish (SRM 36) clear body....nose is coffee, chocolate, molasses....taste is sweet malts caramel, toffee, then molasses, finishing with slight roasted bitterness....mouth feel is light and a bit watery, carbonation is medium. This is somewhat lighter in aroma and flavors than expected, and the mouth feel is a little light.

A classic Baltic Porter. Extremely well-balanced with a variety of sweet and malty flavors. Not too much bite from the alcohol. Incredibly, this is available for around $1.50 - $2/bottle. The other Baltika brews generally leave something to be desired... but #6 never lets me down.
