Alaskan Brewing 2009 Baltic Porter
Baltic Porter
This beer pours dark and soft with a small caramel colored head that lingers for a short period. The vanilla on the nose is intoxicating followed by subtle cherry tones and soft oak. I wanted to keep my eyes closed and soak in the aroma to lock it in my memory forever . The first sip was sweet and chocolatey with soft lingering coffee tones. The mouthfeel creamy with well balanced, light bubbles that danced on my tongue and sparked a sensual flutter in my tummy. The alcohol is surprisingly well masked for the 9.8% ABV. It is amazingly complex beer that is easy to drink with just the right amount of sweetness. I could sip this beer all night. Suffice it to say I would do most anything to have it again. Oh My…
