An indulgent imperial Baltic porter brewed with dried coffee cherries to celebrate Baltic Porter Day 2024.
Taste: Bittersweet notes of dark chocolate and amaretto intertwine with dried berry undertones. As the flavors develop, subtle whispers of vanilla, toasted malt and blackcurrant jam echo through the beer.
Appearance: A pitch black beer with a luscious tan head.
Nose: A tantalizing blend of sweet cherry compote, double shot of espresso, toasted almonds and a delightful hint of warming spices.
Malts: Munich light, pilsner zero, rye malt, chocolate rye, red rye crystal, Carafa special T-2
Hops: HBC 431

33cl bottle from Sip, Tallinn. Pours pitch black with a rather modest, tanned head. Smooth roasty aroma with notes of dark chocolate, coffee and hints of dark, dried fruits. Sweet, smooth and slightly warming with well integrated alcohol and surprisingly balanced flavours. Certainly a nice one - will probably pick up more bottles both for drinking fresh and some for storage.
