Not big/intense in flavor but it’s actually pretty good. Light-bodied and finishes ultra-clean, which is rather distinctive. I picked up some Scottish qualities in the aroma.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown body with light red tinges around the edge and a fluffy yellow head. The aroma is caramel-esque with chalky tart fruitiness and cookie dough notes. Thick chewy chocolately palate and toasty malts along with some hazelnut. Really I quite enjoyed this- very nice, not over the top, just plain good. It’s also dirt cheap.

Silky smooth mouthfeel with excellent body. Taste is milky sweet with sharp roasted espresso, chocolate bitterness. Coca cola flavors are there as well. For the price, it’s a very good beer

ya know, not all that bad. Had this at the CU beer fest and it was most definately one of the best things being offered. Dark in color with a tan thin head. The nose is soft and malty with a touch of spice. The taste is smoothe and slightly hoppy underneath lots of coffee malts. Good overall,

This beer is very dark almost black in color with little to no head. it has a roasty chocolaty flavor with very little hop taste. this beer is very mild and quite drinkable! I liked this beer and is one of the better porters out there. cheers!

Excellent, rich brew. Color is amazing, and as others have noted the flavors are caramelly, rich, roasted with no hop aroma and little flavor

12 OZ bottle via RegallacMC(thanks!). Pours a dark brown almost black with an average size tan head. The aroma is of mocha, toffee, band-aid and vanilla. Taste is of fruity esters-plums, cherries, cantelop, nuts as well as some burnt chocolate and caramel malts. Like many Baltics, this reminds me of a good dopplebock. If there is a Baltic porter that is ’the measuring stick’ for the style this is it..or is it? Seems nobody really know..but i think this is close.... Maybe not the tastiest of them all to my tastebuds, but the baraometer perhaps?
