A traditional dark beer based on old recipes. "Baltika" brews this beer with the best dark and light malts with the addition of superior hop types and a special strain of yeast. Crystal-clear water and the secret touch of "Baltika"'s brewers make this a beer of unsurpassable quality.
The ingredients are water, caramel malt and burnt roasted malt, maltose syrup and hops. 17°

larsga (4435) - Oslo, NORWAY - NOV 2, 2006
Medium beige head. Very deep dark red, barely translucent body in the middle. Sweet licorice aroma with roasty and faint vanilla aroma notes. Deep, roasty, licorice taste. Clean, oily and smooth, thinnish body, very industrial. Dryish, licorice aftertaste. Somewhat acidic grain. Quite good. (0.5l bottle.)

bobaidan (433) - Southington, Connecticut, USA - AUG 16, 2006
Pours very dark with a small head. Aroma is roasted malt with a hint of molasses. Flavor is a little sweet and roasty. Hops are in the back. Pretty good.

Schroppfy (2319) - Łódż, Warsaw, Poland; Michigan, Ohio, USA - NOV 9, 2003
well-made with a distinct but subtle smokiness; has nowhere near the messy high-alchohol trappings of other Baltic Porter; in fact I think it's a very good intro to the style. Falls a little thin toward the end with warming, but still smooth and with well-rounded tastes of some nut, sweet brown sugar and smoke.

YK23 (465) - Haifa, ISRAEL - OCT 21, 2005
UPDATED: MAR 5, 2007 A bitter-sweet porter (more bitter then sweet), more coffish then chocolaty in the flavor, malty, alcohol, not very smooth and easy to drink but still one of my favorits because you get a good value for your money, it’s pretty cheap.

Bockyhorsey (2590) - Mesa, Arizona, USA - JAN 3, 2006
Aroma has a decent roasted barley noticable. Black body with brown head. A creamy texture along with roasted malt flavor made this a smooth enjoyable beer. Roasty aftertaste on palate, thanks Santa.

Good carbonation. Black as midnight. Nose is clearly a sweet, roasted coffee. Starts smooth, malty and strong coffee flavor, finishes with a little hoppiness and bitterness. A very good porter

drpimento (1695) - La Crosse, Wisconsin, USA - JUL 8, 2007
Nice beer! Interesting sort of holiday spice aromas. Poured with a nice light tan head and plenty of lace. Opaque. A little bittersweet at first and then a pleasant long sweet finish. Soft mouth. A shade roasty. LIke I said, nice beer. Had this bottle at the Bodega Brew Pub downtown La Crosse Wisconsin USA.

BeerRules (243) - Houston, Texas, USA - JUL 28, 2005
Smells malty, sweet, toffee, bit of cocoa powder, molasses. Taste is sweet caramel, roasted, metallic, bit of fruitiness (reminds me of nectarines for some reason). Nice creamy mouthfeel with a lingering sweetness. I like that sweetness, but wish it had a bit more roastiness to it. Nice beer
