Shared with and courtesy of Grumbo with ITFCDan. Aroma of fruit, toffee, raisins and dried fruit. Taste is like jam, fruity, almost like a sour. Not sure it is supposed to be like that.

330ml can from Chester Beer & Wines webshop. Cloudy mahogany with small beige head. Aroma of sweet toffee apples, bready malts, some grass. Taste is very tangy, almost a sour milk off-note, toffee apple, yeast, some background roastiness. Medium body and carbonation, slightly dry and oily at the end. It improved over time but its not that tasty for the style. It was only around the £3 mark for this Baltic Porter so often you get what you pay for.

Taster. Darker brown, smaller and not too lasting beige head. Biscuity nose with some dry fruity notes, sweet and syrupy feeling. Moderate sweetness, milder bitterness. Lighter body. Not bad, but not the ebest of them.

Panda at home, thanks to SHIG, 16/05/21. Deep mahogany brown with a fast escaping tan cap that settles to the edge of the glass. Nose is brown bread, herbal notes, hint of treacle toffee. Taste comprises tangy slightly soured fruit esters, brown sugars. Medium bodied, moderate carbonation, semi drying close. Rather flabby and lacking any great flavour.

Thin beige head left a cover on a dark reddish brown still body. Malt, berry & jam aroma. Medium bodied, smooth with a limp back. Berry, malt, jam, blackcurrant & very sweet fruity tastes. What a poor Baltic Porter
