Baltic Trader is a real heavy weight, Baltic Trader is an extra strong export stout brewed with molasses and three roasted malts, giving fruity flavours with hints of vanilla and roasted coffee, It's like a rich plum pudding in a glass!

Gravity Dispense at Merchants Inn Beer Festival, Rugby - 31/10/12. Very dark mahogony brown approaching black with a small tan head that soon clears to zero. Nose is big on the booze, dark malts, liqourice, a touch of wood and some smoke. Tastes of dark malts, dark fruits, molasses, lots of booze. Full bodied with limited carbonation leading to a boozey malty finish. A little one dimensional, too much booze which isn’t that well integrated in my opinion when compared to other beers in this style.

Cask-conditioned at the Black & Gold beer festival, the Gryphon, Bristol 2/9/2012. Near black with a tight, off-white head. Big aroma of dark fruits, roasted malts and a touch of grassy hops. Flavour was sweet to begin with, with more fruit, liqourice and some dark chocolate, before a warming, dryish finish. Surprisingly easy drinking for the ABV.

Cask, gravity at Merton Winter Beer Festival, 17th & 18th February 2012 Incredibly drinkable for the abv, smooth with some good coffee notes. The alcohol shows but it really doesn’t suggest that this is 10.5%. Smooth with some creamy vanilla, coffee is light and not too pushy. Most enjoyable stout and deservedly popular.

Gravity cask at the Wandsworth Halloween Festival 2011. Pours brown-ruby with a soft, beige head. Caramel, dark malt and light chocolate nose. Very sweet flavor with a great smoke character. Light bacon notes, cured ham, sugar, alcohol. Full bodied with fine carbonation and light boozy sting. Warm finish, mild smoke, dark malts, toasted sugar, subtle dark fruits, light roast. Pretty damn good. Goes quite well with the blues man that just started his set.
