Baltic Porter
Built to travel, baltic porters were stronger and more generously hopped to survive longer treks abroad. We crafted ours in salute to the legendary Soviet Union goaltender Vladislav Tretiak. Smooth, Dark and malt forward with notes of caramel, biscuit, coffee, dark toast and plum this graceful porter is smooth and clean. Rye bread spice impeccably balanced with a touch of old school grit, this flavourful porter pairs best fireside, with smores, the '72 Summit Series on replay and good banter.

473mL can. Pours very dark brown with a small beige head. Dry toasted bread and a touch of coffee on the nose. Flavour has a pretty decent malt profile: dry roast, dusty coffee beans, a touch of burnt anise. Body is thinner than what I'm used to for this style, but makes sense with the lower ABV. Pretty solid.
