In collaboration with Hammerton. Brewed with a lager yeast, with Chocolate Malt & Rye in the grist, plus lactose for creaminess. Expect a smooth & spicy robust dark beer with a more-ish sweetness & a delectable roasty character.

Looks quite light brownish, with some off-white foam. Smells roasty. Some sharp carbonation. Taste is pretty good, lots of roasty coffee flavour and some dark chocolate sweetness. Malty, very toasty. Not bad, easily drinkable, but a bit one-dimensional.

Can. Mitchell’s Wines, Sheffield. Clear, dark chestnut brown. Fine, dense, beige head. Nose has dried vine fruit. Some liquorice. Chocolate malt. Some coffee. Taste is ridiculously sweet, with barely a trace of bitterness. Medium body. Soft carbonation. More sweetness to finish. Why would you put lactose in a Baltic Porter? This is another example of Abbeydale missing the mark by miles.
