Baltic Porter 8 º 45 IBU

Cervezas Speranto

This celebratory Baltic Porter, marking a decade of brewing, presents a sophisticated lager profile characterized by its matte black appearance. The sensory journey is defined by deep, roasted malt complexity, weaving together rich notes of caramel, dark chocolate, and the distinct, savory sweetness of licorice. Prominent black fruit esters—reminiscent of plums and raisins—emerge alongside a subtle vinous quality. Despite its 8% strength, the beer remains remarkably round and subtle on the palate, offering a long, smooth finish that highlights roasted coffee undertones without any burnt harshness. It is a refined, warming lager that perfectly balances traditional European richness with a clean fermentation profile.

Appearance. Opaque dark brown to matte black (25-30 SRM); thick, persistent tan-colored head with excellent lacing; generally clear, though the depth of color makes it appear opaque.

Aroma. High intensity; rich maltiness featuring deep toast, caramel, and licorice; significant dark fruit profile including prunes and black currants; clean fermentation with no detectable hop aroma or yeast-derived phenols.

Taste. Initial malty sweetness transitions into complex layers of molasses, toffee, and dark fruit; a smooth, Schwarzbier-like roasted character provides depth without being burnt or acrid; medium-low bitterness (approx. 30 IBU) balances the rich malt; finishes long and dryish with lingering notes of licorice and dark berries.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a very smooth, creamy texture; moderate carbonation provides a mouth-filling sensation; well-integrated, gentle alcohol warmth that reflects the 8% ABV without being hot.
