It’s time to bring back a classic. Our Baltic Porter proudly celebrates a traditional style that’s tired of being overlooked. Each sip boasts notes of brown sugar, graham crackers and dark fruit. The moderate sweetness is balanced by the bite of the 8.5% Alc. by Vol. The smooth depth of this beer is rounded out by the lager yeast, giving this beer the bold character it deserves.

Crowler c/o Ryan. Heavy, thick chocolate tone. A little undercarbed. Mellow and heavy, full bodied but not overbearing.

On tap at Bakgården Både&. An almost black beer with a small beige head. Roasted, lightly burnt aroma with coffee and some caramel. Hints of dried fruits that is more present in the flavor. It's full-bodied, smooth and soft on the palate, with flavors of roasted malts, caramel and coffee. More sweet than dry. Some bread crust and a faint burnt hint. Lasting roasted, coffee-ish finish with caramel sweetness. Delicious, yet nothing really extraordinary. 171125
