dark brown color. Frothy light brown head. Malty, milk chocolate and brown bread with raisins in the nose. Semi sweet maltiness. Low carbonation lots of fresh baked Lithuania brown with plums and raisins. warming finish. Roasted malt character is fairly subdued. Fairly interesting and this has potential to really be bad by being too sweet, cloying and unbalanced but it’s like they tried to do something really difficult and they didn’t fuck it up but they didn’t master it either. Really well balanced. I can see why people wouldn’t like this, if they expect a typical imperial stout, but this has its charm. Dry finish with plums and brown bread lasting. Definitely heads into Baltic Porter territory but an ale. The more I drink, the more I groove on it.
