Hazy light brown, thin head. Toasty aroma is basic porter, nothing Baltic. Light body, sweet and chocolatey. An alright porter but disappointing in the sense that it has absolutely no Baltic character.

Draught at Vancouver Craft Beer Week 2015
Cloudy blond color with generous head. Strong aroma of spices and summer flowers, weed, chamomile. Smooth, a lot of citrusy character, also spicy yeast, with good degree of bitterness, and citrus peel.
Nailed it.

On cask at VCBW Festival, pours an opaque golden with almost no head. Nose brings out bubblegum, weird spiciness and cloying sweetness. Flavour is vile, with herbal sweetness, bubblegum and licorice. Just terrible - what an abomination. How can you sell this?

Cask at Vancouver Craft Beer Week 2015
Murky orange color, frothy head. Fruity but also too yeasty, aroma and flavor, not fully fermented, sweetish, not much rye, lightly sour, with low bitterness. Dirty.
A lot of work needed here.

On tap at VCBW Festival, pours a cloudy yellow with a medium white head. Nose brings out loads spicy coriander, followed by citrus and wheat. Flavour is quite spicy, with coriander upfront, followed by citrus and wheat. Really quite an interesting wit - lots of spice that is well-situated. Very nice for the style.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a clear pale yellow with a small white head. Aroma brings out corn upfront, with a little grass. Flavour is clean and smooth, with grass, corn and light hops. Fairly flavourful for a light lager. Drinks very easily. Decent.
