Saranac Chocolate Orange is a limited edition small batch brew from our "High Peak" series, a line of beers that are bigger, more complex and flavorful. Brewed as a full bodied robust Baltic-style porter with five different hops and four different malts, this beer pushes the porter style to a new level. We start with generous amounts of chocolate malt and then add blood orange peel. In fermentation, the finest hand-selected purest cacao nibs are added to enhance the chocolate flavor. Look for a dark chocolate roasted flavor finished off with a unique surprise from blood orange peel, making this an extra special treat! Beer Style: Baltic Porter with Cacao and Orange Peel Malt Selections: 2 Row, Dark Crystal and Chocolate Malt Hop Selections: Cascade, Saphir Color: Deep Amber Mouthfeel / Body: Full, Sweet Food Companions: Smoked or rasted game, duck, aged cheese (Roquefort, Stilton), dark chocolate Alcohol By Volume: 9.0% Original Gravity: 24.0 Availability: Limited Release

    Aroma: 6 | Appearance: 7 | Mouthfeel: 6 | Flavor: 7 | Overall: 7

    Bottle,from KnoxBeer Crew tasting. Deep dark tobacco brown pour, thin head, syrupy draping throughout drinking. Sweet blood orange aroma, roasted malts, cocoa, light brown sugar. Taste is a touch overly sweet, mouthfeel is syrupy. Flavors of medium roasted malts, a bit of dark chocolates, some oranges in the palette but not as much as the nose would indicate.
