BA Imperial Baltic Porter 13% vol
A bigger and bolder version of Öö brewed for its 10th anniversary, aged in cognac barrels.
Taste: A velvety concoction of toasted malts, chocolate ganache and luscious vanilla slowly melt away, until delicate notes of blackberries and heather tips emerge. The finish reveals an elegant cask presentation with notes of warming cognac, dark dried fruits and refined tannins.
Appearance: As pitch black as the night sky, with a dense chestnut head.
Nose: The rich aroma of chocolate and cracked walnuts jump out of the bottle, quickly followed by a gentle touch of vanilla.
Malts: Pilsner zero, Munich, Carafa special T-2, Chocolate dark, Caramel 300, Special B, dark sugar, raisins
Hops: Columbus, Northern Brewer
OG 33° ; FG 11.5° ; IBU 30

Opaque black brown beer, small tan head. Smooth and slightly viscous palate, modest fine carbonation. Smooth dark malts, bloody sweet! Big banana esters and lesser bubblegum esters makes me think this is an experimental Belgian beer. Big sweet Cognac tones merge with almost Port like berries. More sweet esters into a candy choccy smooth finish. Well its bigger and bolder for sure but I think it's a fair bit clunkier that it's smaller sibling. Pretty sweet and estery for my liking however you can't deny it's flavour intensity nor drinkability for its hefty.abv.

Kuna öö on üks mu kõige lemmarimaid Põhjala õllesid, siis ma ootan x-st rohkem, paberil kõlab paremini kui tegelikkuses maitseb. Aga miks ei ole tavalisest ööst bourboni jms versioone?! Võiks arvata, et kui konjaki versiooni kannatab teha, siis ka teisi..
