Baltic Porter 8 º

Garage Project

This Baltic Porter offers a sophisticated, deeply layered sensory experience, balancing the richness of a Doppelbock with the smooth roast of a Schwarzbier. An assertive malt profile leads with aromas of dark chocolate, molasses, and toasted nuts, complemented by a complex bouquet of dried plums and cherries. On the palate, a velvety sweetness gives way to flavors of licorice and cold-brew coffee, finishing remarkably clean without any burnt acridity. Its deceptive 8% ABV provides a gentle, well-aged warmth that integrates seamlessly into a medium-full body, making for a dangerously drinkable and luxurious dark lager with a smooth, lagered character.

Appearance. Opaque dark brown with deep reddish-copper highlights at the edges. Features a thick, persistent tan-colored head with excellent lacing.

Aroma. High intensity of rich maltiness, showcasing notes of caramel, molasses, and dark chocolate. A complex ester profile suggests dried fruits like raisins, prunes, and dark cherries, exhibiting a faint vinous quality with no hop aroma.

Taste. Initial malt sweetness carries flavors of toffee and nutty complexity. A prominent but smooth roasted malt character emerges, reminiscent of coffee and licorice without harsh burnt notes. Low bitterness provides balance, leading to a smooth, dryish finish with lingering dark fruit and dark malt depth.

Mouthfeel. Medium-full body with a smooth, creamy texture. Medium-high carbonation provides a mouth-filling sensation. A noticeable yet well-integrated alcohol warmth is present, reflecting its strength without being hot or fusel.
