93 Amnesia Baltic Porter, Grumpy Troll Brewery (WI). 8.2% ABV (11/09) %{Brewpub}
Opaque brown black color. Aromas of molasses, prunes, dried apples, and dark roasted chestnuts follow through on a big, supple entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium-full body with crème brûlée, malt vinegar, and cocoa notes. Finishes with a long, chewy toffee, dried citrus, green peppercorn and grassy hop fade. A tasty, powerhouse of Baltic Porter that hits all the high notes.
89 Pack-It-Porter: Baltic, Pagosa Brewing Company (CO). 9.2% ABV (11/11) %{Brewpub}
Brown black color. Hint of smoked meat and nuts and dried cherries on the nose with a supple, chewy dry-yet-fruity medium-full body and a tangy, dried citrus and pear, beets, mocha, and peppery grassy hops. A fun bbq beer.
