i can't believe they killed off that superman villain in the boat movie. .. Pours as black as a panther (peanut) .. . good head with medium strength lacing .. . roast, coffee, smoke, and bbq pit gunk in the nose; which follows smoothly into the mouth.. . damn drinkable, and no awareness of the abv! .. would love to try this on tap, but i know i never will .. . I will DEFINITELY be picking up some more before its all gone!! .. .

you mean you're not my real parents!?!?

-haha!! ya right!!

Bottle from Steve in Warren. Smoked baltic porter nails it. Starts with licorice. Thick black pour. Smoke and roast aroma. Roast to near burnt. Big big mouthfeel. Some ice cream. Chocolate and coffee. Very tasty and lovely drinkability. Something special.

Poured from a 12oz bottle into a US tumbler pint glass.

A: The beer is a deep black color, with a thin light brown head that fades slowly and leaves a thin lace on the glass.

S: The aroma contains roasted malts, coffee, chocolate and a touch of hops.

T: The taste starts out with creamy and sweet flavors of coffee and chocolate. Then a hearty roasted malt character comes in. There is some flavor of dark fruit in the background as well. The hops presence is mild but complementary and brings a good balance. The after-taste is slightly sweet.

M: Crisp and smooth, medium body, medium carbonation, finish is slightly sticky.

O: Tasty, goes down easily, not too filling, good kick, good representation of style, this is a solid porter to drink for a while.
