Bottle: Poured a hazy deep dark copper color ale with a large foamy head with good retention with some lacing. Aroma of barrel-aged notes with light vanilla and woody notes with some light dry caramelized malt. Taste is a nice mix between some vanilla and woody notes with some dry caramelized malt notes. Body si about average with good carbonation and light warming alcohol notes. The Baltic porter notes are dominant the BA ESB. The overall mix works better than I was expecting and the results is a nice nightcap style beer.
