What Our Editors Thought
“Distant smoke phenols over red-grape malt notes in the nose. The sip is woody, nutty, and sparse, with a lean malt sweetness that’s just enough to support its heft.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Rich toasted bread collides with molasses and just a touch of dark fruit. Light hints of smoked salami and bacon. Maillard-reacted thick and heavy layers in both aroma and flavor. Roast coffee and hints of light caramel in the flavor slowly fade into notes of dark cherry, toffee, and leather with a touch of spicy bitterness in the finish.”
What the Brewers Say
“Baltic porter. A collaboration with Amalgam.”
