Indigenous to northern Europe, Baltic Porters historically stem from the shipping of British porters to the Russian hinterland. Unlike their British cousins, Baltic Porters are often brewed with lager yeast, which is the tradition we follow. Big & bold, with flavors of coffee, dark fruit & raisins, this black beer is smooth as a chocolate swirl.

Smuttynose Baltic Porter Tasting Notes

So solid. Had this guy on tap a few times: at Gottino in the West Village, at Rattle and Hum during Craft Beer Week. Pours pitch dark with a soft off-white head. Smells of roasted malts and coffee. Taste: delicious, rich and sweet yet somewhat bitter with dry roast. Quite smooth and full bodied. Finishes with lingering espresso and burnt malt notes.
