Bottled, from Systembolaget. Near black, minimal beige head. Chocolate, tobacco and licorice up front. Mid dry with medium-full body and clean, rounded mouthfeel. Milk chocolate, notes of leather and red berries. Mild somewhat salty finish. Rich and well polished.

As for my ratings below, they are from when the beer was called "West Coast Bryggeri Baltic porter", both the brewery name and the beer name, as well as the label, was a tad different.First ratingBottle 33 cl thanks to Ingo!

Malty, roasted, light acidic, grainy, ashes taste. Dry, bitter, grainy aftertaste. Medium to light fizzy mouthfeel, medium though dry bitterness.7/4/6/3/12=3.2RerateBacklog, used to work for this brewery and at time reviewed the beers I tasted, now that I am no longer employed figured I can enter them.BB 08.12.2016 - Batch 15011Clear deep dark brown color, medium sized tan head.Hints of raisin, plenty of ash, a bit sweet malty scent.Malty, toasted, raisin taste. Grainy, raisin aftertaste.A bit weak mouthfeel, sort of low CO2, medium low bitterness.Nice color and head for a porter. Scent feels sort of off and the taste hints to an aged porter. A bit low mouthfeel, but fits the style of baltic porter.5/4/7/3/13=3.2
