3.8 Can at home in Hackney - picked up from online, can’t recall where. Pours black-brown with a frothy, tan topping. Restrained sweetness, nice toasted brown bread, a little milk chocolate, mild roast, burnt grains. Light to medium bodied with average carbonation. Balanced finish, more chocolatey dark malts, raisins, earth. Sound.
4.0 Can, 5.5%. Aroma of dark bread. Black colour. Small light brown head. The flavour has a good maltiness, dark bread, quite sweet, molasses, roasted malt syrup. Good chocolate notes. Not very bitter, but has some bitterness, only it is balanced by a distinct sweetness. Very good for the ABV.

Bitter, roasty flavour with pronounced notes of oats and touches of yeast and rye malt, as well as hints of vanilla and dark chocolate. Oaty and estery aftertaste with notes of roast. A nice one.

3.7 Dark brown with a beige head of modest duration. Aroma of charred grains and dark chocolate with a hint of rye bread. Taste is bittersweet up front, bitter at the back with a roasted and grainy end. Body to the full side of medium, moderate to mild carbonation. Pretty traditional, and assertive despite the low ABV. Nice.

3.6 Pours almost black with a small tan head, which disappears quickly. Malty aroma with sweet notes of dried berries, raisins, vanilla and caramel. Taste begins with sweetish and slightly roasted malts, vanilla, dark chocolate and a hint of smokiness. Finishes with pleasant crispier touch dryish black coffee. Soft to average carbonation. A tasty and well balanced brew with all the typical characters of the Baltic Porter. (Poured from a 330ml can, produced 20.10.2021, bb 20.10.2023)
3.9 Can. Med-full body, med-high carbonation, head disappears quickly though. Fully malty, with lots of toffee, nuts and chocolate, moderate coffee, light vanilla. Feels a bit boozy, which is kinda ridiculous at this ABV, but it is not bothersome, rather adds to the depth. Feels both easy drinking and rich. Quite good.
