Hints of cocoa and raisins arise out of this rare ballanced lager from the innovative hop-heads in our brewery. Dark brown with a red tint, and so easy to drink.

Taster at the Taphouse. Dark brown, near opaque, thin creamy beige head. Roasty aroma, smoke, coffee. Taste brings chocolate on top of the roasty malts, with a hint of sweetness. Bitterness at the finis finish lingers.

Surprised this isn't a Russian Imperial, er Soviet stout. Black body with thin off white head. Malt forward and backward flavour and finish.

Dark brown. There's some chocolate but that's it...a strongish, chocolatey porter. On that score it's ok as a beer but not a Baltic...at all.

On tap at prefunk Boise. Sad to say this could be my biggest dissapontment to date on a Barley Brown beer. The beer overall is ok but not even close to style. Pours out dark copper color topped with a sand head. Light caramel malts some toast. Taste is more of the light bread toast malts. I was really hoping for some big roast Baltic kick.

On Tap murky deep brown with a little redish on the edges. Thin fine mocha colored head. Strong smokey earth flavors. Rather light bodied but plenty of peaty dark roast. Missing some of teh residuals I expected from a Baltic.
