Winter Treacle Porter Oak Aged Beer
Type: Baltic Porter
Alcohol: 7.4%
Country: Scotland
Pours a very dark ruby closing on brown, expected it to be much darker because of the porter title. Little to no head. Aroma is of spicy dark fruits and sweetness. The taste is very spicey, with berries and chocolate. The molasses comes through in a nice caramel a sweetness with the barest hint if smoke. Not a very balanced beer and kind of strange in general. That might be from the baltic porter aspect, not my favorite type of beer in general. I think this would be great as a desert beer but it is maybe a little overly complicated and a bit of a miss.
