Smoked Baltic Porter is the sultry sister of a storied style. Brewed with traditional German malts and hops, this dark lager gets its special twist from a hefty addition of Bamberg smoked malt. This smoldering, medium-bodied lager is sure to please. Smoked Baltic Porter is smooth, smoky and dark…mysterious enough yet? 6.2% ABV

    Courtesy of sebletitje. It pours mahogany with tan head. The aroma is sweet rich sticky molasses infused with smokiness as well as some prunes, mildly roasted malts and faint earthiness at the end of the draw. The taste has dark roasted malts moving into dark chocolate brownie and mild dark fruity esters. Floating around these notes is a persistent smooth modest smokiness nearing but not actually reaching the realm of bacon.

    10cl sample (bottle) at Vulkan ølfestival. Pours dark brown, almost black, with a small beige head. Mild aroma of roasted malt with licorice, dark fruits, chocolate and just a hint of smoke and spices. Medium to full body. Sweet, but well balanced. Lightly bitter and hoppy finish, also quite dry. Pleasant porter, but a bit anonymous. (2012-10-03)

    650 ml bottle, Cardinal Pub & Bar, Stavanger. ABV is 7.5%. Black colour, dark brown in the highlights. Large beige head. Smokey and roasty aroma, notes of smoked meat, mild coffee and dark chocolate. The flavour is medium sweet and moderately roasty, some coffee and dark chocolate again, the smokiness is not excessive. Moderate hops. Good beer, but I’d still prefer a Limfjordsporter to this one.

    Pours dark brown and nearly opaque with ruby highlights and a bubbly khaki head and the foam drops quickly leaving a few soapy wisps of lace. The aromoa is mild with bitter chocolate malts and a touch of smoke. Might also be detecting some Molasses? The taste is dark chocolate, figs, slightest hint of smoke. A light hop bittering hidden at the back. The mouthfeel is lightly carbonated and creamy with a touch of alcohol warming in throat.

    Purchased @ Belmont Party Supply, Dayton, OH. Near black pour with a slim tan head leaving spots of lacing. Light smoked Bamberg malt aroma, molasses, a hint of leather, toasted malts, very light earthy hops. Taste is a nice blend of very light smoked malts and slightly sweet molasses with a nice finish and smoked bitter linger that is short-lived. This is a must try for SmokeHeads and good Baltic Porters are difficult to come by - seek it out - Worthy!

    Rich chocolate dominates the aroma but a slight hop fruitiness lurks in the background,standard porter color, and mouthfeel but it leaves a little lace. Flavor starts with roasted malt, a little smoke, and a bitter coffee finish. Overall a fine brew from Great Divide, but i was looking for more smoke.

    7.5%- Haven't had a Great Divide that I have not liked. I also am not that big of a fan of smokey beers, but this is not overwhelmingly strong. The basic chocolate malts here, maybe some coffee and other stuff....some bitter hop to balance out quite well. Not as strong as the Yeti, but similar in style...but with smoke. Worth the try, but not sure if I would get again with so all that's out there.

    As you'd expect. Deep black color. A moderate sized, foamy texted, light beige head rises above. There's some hang time on this one. It settles into a medium sized ringlet. Roasty-sweet malt and smokiness in the nose and more so on the tongue. I don't get much else. A thick bodied nearly slick feel. This one was okay, even though smoky beers are not my favorite.
