The Duck-Rabbit Baltic Porter is deep, rich and velvety soft. A full blooded roasty character with almost no burnt flavor is balanced by complex alcohol notes. Strong (9% alcohol by volume) yet unfailingly subtle, this special brew rewards unhurried attention. Enjoy!

Tap. Pours opaque black, small brown head, nice lacing. Aroma is dark roasted malt, tobacco, coffee, anise. Flavor is the same, medium sweet, anise finish. Full body, creamy, light warming finish. I was really looking forward to this one and it just didn’t do it for me. Oh well.

From a 12 oz bottle shared at home. Pours black with a tan head. Rich caramel in the nose. Chewy mouthfeel. Flavors of roasted malt with hints of toffee. Smooth, slightly boozy finish. A real fine porter.

Opaque black beer, good light brown head. Softish palate and a tiny bit of dry. Creamy malt, mild dark character. Nice fruits - strawberry with a little cherry and raspberry. Mild dark chocolate undertone. One of the fruitiest porters I’ve had in many a long yonk.

12oz bottle. Poured a dark brown color, probably close to black but not quite, with a tan head. Aroma was chocolate notes, roasted malts, touch of coffee and toffee. Flavor was chocolate malts, roasted notes, with toffee and a touch of coffee. Alcohol is pretty well masked as this was quite drinkable. Enjoyed.

Thanks to GT2! Smells of strong alcohol and raisins, even plum or blackcurrant or something a little fruity. There’s also a heavy smoky aroma wafting out of the black dregs. Pours jet black, amber on the edges with little head. Taste has lots of black, roast and smoke malt with a heavy mix of alcohol. Heavy on the palate. Follow through is a hint of bitter and hint of sweet that hangs around the back of your throat like syrup. Amazing beer. 330ml bottle.
