Aug 29, 2009 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.

Mar 7, 2004 Comes in a very attractive 500ml bottle, nice packaging.
Quite a handsome beer to look at deepest ,darkest garnet..nice tan head..that goes quite fast..leaves beautiful lacing down the glass.
The aroma is mostly of toasted malts..with a nice alcohol undertow.
Taste is sweet for a mega second after it hits the tongue..then a nice treacle like semi-bitterness..almost liquorice like..then a different bitter after taste ( hops?)..nice alcohol warming.
Very nice in the mouth, invigorating.
I found this to be a very drinkable Baltic..my favourite style after all.

Dec 23, 2009 From a 16 ounce pint bottle given to me as a Hannukah/Xmas/Winter Solstice present from my girlfriend - This one poured a very dark brew with a small, tight bubbled tan tan head of foam and weighty liquid. Tastewise, it has definite raisin and alcohol flavorings over a passing malty coffee base.

Oct 15, 2003 Black as night and twice as delicious. Man, for a place that makes a malt liqour, this is actually a really great porter. Smooth tasting this beer is all about the coffee smell. Surprised as hell, the 7% ABV is hidden quite well. For a buck fifty for over a pint of it, not a bad deal. Classy bottle and a delicious brew.

Sep 10, 2007 16.9 oz bottle. Pours a dark brown with a frothy brown head that quickly dissipates to a thin film that leaves a little lacing.
The aroma is sweet chocolate malts with a little bit of smoke and tar.
The flavor is sweet lactic chocolate with some dark fruits, smoke and a little coffee with a roasted bitter finish. The mouthfeel is medium with some sharp carbonation.
Overall, a nice surprise. This is a well done porter.

Jan 30, 2004 Dark, almost opaque, brown body with ample foamy tan head. Very visually appealing. A faint coffee aroma. Some raisens. Coffee and chocolate in the flavor. Smooth mouthfeel. I liked this porter.

Mar 30, 2005 Very dark brown, almost black, with a nice tan head which fades. Aroma is malt and molasses. Excellent roasty flavor with notes of chocolate, dark malts, molasses, and a faint bitterness. Full body and silky mouthfeel. Gains points for low price. This is an excellent beer.
