Smells softly of coffee, has a watery brown body with no real foam. Flavour is weak caramel and molasses. Mouthfeel is so watery, but extra points since the high abv does not show through at all. Nonetheless, this is still a watery mess. (Hey, that rhymes!).

On tap at Kind Brewing, pours a dark brown with a small white head. Aroma brings out light vanilla. Flavour is lightly-to-moderately sweet, with gentle vanilla. Lacking depth or complexity but drinkable enough. Meh.

Dark brown, thin head. Has a little bit of fudge and molasses on the nose. Similar palate - definitely aiming for some alcohol, and molasses notes. Not the most authentic of attempts at Baltic Porter, but I feel that it's at least an honest attempt, and not just somebody trying to crib old world street cred for a mediocre porter. I do feel Kind was aiming for proper Baltic here, so credit for that.
