Baltic Porter 7 º 36 IBU

Cervecería de Colima

This Imperial Porter presents a profound sensory evolution of the brewery’s classic dark ale. A complex malt bill featuring Pale Ale, Golden Oats, Crystal, Brown, and Chocolate malts, capped with Carafa Spezial, creates an intense profile of raw cacao, dark chocolate, and roasted coffee. Magnum hops provide a clean foundation of bitterness, while Sorachi Ace adds a faint, unique herbal nuance that complements the deep roast. The addition of oats contributes to a robust, velvety texture. It balances assertive roasted grains with a lingering malty sweetness, offering a sophisticated, high-gravity interpretation of the American Porter style.

Appearance. Very dark brown, nearly opaque black with deep garnet highlights. Pours with a thick, creamy, tan-colored head featuring excellent retention and dense lacing.

Aroma. High intensity of roasted malts with dominant notes of bittersweet chocolate, espresso, and toasted bread. A subtle earthy and slightly herbal hop character from the Sorachi Ace is present in the background. Low fruity esters with no acrid or burnt sharpness.

Taste. Initial impression of rich dark chocolate and espresso driven by Chocolate and Carafa Spezial malts. Medium-high bitterness from Magnum hops provides balance to the residual sweetness of Crystal and Brown malts. The mid-palate reveals toasted oats and a hint of nuttiness, finishing medium-dry with a lingering, pleasant cocoa bitterness.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full to full body with a smooth, creamy, and robust texture enhanced by the use of Golden Oats. Carbonation is moderate. A gentle, well-integrated alcohol warmth is noticeable but smooth.
