An indulgent imperial Baltic porter aged in French crème de cassis barrels.
Taste
First sip is roasty with a subtle smokiness. A mineral saltiness plays quietly in the background. The mid-palate turns blackcurrant jammy, complemented by dark plums and raisins. The aftertaste is long and persistent - roasty bitterness balanced by a blackcurrant-liqueur-like sweetness. This is a full-bodied, bold, and multifaceted beer with excellent long-term cellaring potential.
Nose
Heavily roasted oak with hints of vanilla and cinnamon, supported by smoky plum and blackcurrant in the background.
Appearance
Dark brown, nearly black beer with a beige-brown, finger-thick head that lingers for a long time.
Hops
El Dorado
Malts
Pilsner, Munich light, kaeralinnased, Caramel 150, Chocolate, Chocolate wheat
