Easy drinking, light and dark flavors mixed. Kind of like drinking a black and tan that was not poured well. I have not had a lot of baltic porters and this reminds me that I need to track down a few of the better ones to try.

12oz bottle shared by riversideAK. Pours a clear lighter brown color with little head. A caramel biscuit nose with hints of tobacco. Taste is faint with no serious flavors coming to the front. Some bread, caramel and dark fruit in there. Not a very inspiring beer.

Bottle from the Binny’s in Willowbrook, IL: This pours a clear mahogany body with a decent tan head that soon reduces to some film and a ring around the glass. The aroma is a chocolatey dark toffee with hints of dried fruit. The flavor has a touch of roastiness, dark caramel, thin molasses, and raisins. Well hidden alcohol content. The sweet finish lasts for quite a while. Not bad.

Very very dark brown with a very strong scent. Pretty foamy head that lasted for a fair amount of time. Tasted a lot like caramel and some oaky flavors, plus something I can’t really put my finger on. Finishes strong and lingers on the taste buds for a long time.

Bottle. This beer is brown. Really fucking brown. Foamy head leaves lots of lacing. Flavor is caramel malt, candy sugar, some banana bread. Spice notes of cinnamon and a hint of pepper. Finish is lingering and a bit syrupy. Medium bodied. Solid.

Pours a clear nutmeg brown with very little tan head. Aroma is of a malt, cinnamon and dark bread. Flavor is a bit watery but of malts and chocolate. There are definite cola notes with how watery it is. Body is light with fair carbonation.

Brown with a roasty-sweet aroma with dark fruit and chocolate. Flavor is a bit roasty with figs, chocolate, and dark bread. More Doppel-bockish than most Baltic porters, but it works.

[Bottle] Pours a very dark brown color with a beige head. Aroma of coffee and cocoa. Taste is reminiscent of a sweet stout, in my opinion. Roasted dark malts and dry chocolate notes in the flavor. Mouthfeel on the thin side. The alcohol is there, but not as strong as one might expect. It’s pretty decent overall.
