Aug 11, 2008 Dark black in colour, small but dence caramel coloured head. Big chocolate coco nose, with high alcohol coming in at the back. How complex is this?
Liquorice, chocolate, molases flavours. Palate is a bit short, coud be longer. Smooth mouthfeel.

Jun 8, 2008 Pitch black color. Intense nose of dark fruit, berries, bittering chocolate and toffee. Starts much more sour than expected with some berries, caramel and bitteriing chocolate. Sourness works quit well. Warming alcoholic finish with plums and dark chocolate. Intense stuff.

Mar 31, 2008 My first rating here in about 4 years!
Black with a thin coffee-colour head. The aroma kills me everytime... a sweet stickiness which is over-the-top but not in a sickly way. Whiskey, chocolate, dried fruit and pudding in the mouth an alcoholic finish.

Jan 16, 2008 Black with a average looking brown head. Aroma of prunes, chocolate, rum, and vanilla... the alcohol is there, but its very clean, without any solventy notes. Great full body, warming and smooth. Flavours of dark hazelnut chocolate, vanilla, and a plethora of roasted malts giving loads of complexity. Silky finish with loads of chocolate. Probably Australia’s best beer, reminded me a lot of the unkaggen stormarksporter from Narke, maybe a little less rummy.

Jun 12, 2007 Bottled at RBESG 2006 - thanks to Motelpogo. A pitch black beer with a disappearing brown head. The aroma is sweet with strong notes of caramel and roasted malt as well as light notes of alcohol. The flavor is very sweet with medium notes of roasted malt and chocolate, as well as light notes of whiskey, leading to a dry roasted finish. The alcohol leaves a slight burn in the cheeks.

Jan 27, 2007 Probably the best beer from this little brewery. Everything they brew tends to be quite sweet, which I don’t like. But a little sweetness really suits the Baltic Porter. Very dark. Rich, chocolatey aroma. Nutty, roasty and chocolatey flavour with quite a lot of depth and complexity. The alcohol warms you up nicely, though it doesn’t really makes its presence known in the flavour, only in the way it lends some oiliness to the palate. Nice stuff. Looking at the other ratings though, how the hell did you squeeze 14 ratings out of one little bottle at the RBESG’06?!! Sheesh!

Jan 20, 2007 12 May 2006 (AIBA 2006-Rating 15) - Meaty light roast malt flavour. Dark-brown-red colour, good head and suds lacing. Spiritous raisin fruit roasted sweet malt flavour. Sweet hop malt finish. A Porter is not my favourite style but this beer is good.
