Eventide Kattegat

Deep reddish brown, opaque, with a thin off-white head. Tobacco, sweet malt, hints of chocolate. Medium bodied, light carbonation, smooth. Vinous, sweet dark fruit, dark brown sugar, clean not cloying, and a nice rich chocolate and coffee finish. Can you navigate Kattegat? This style, unlike its better known cousin the Robust Porter, doesn't have the deep roasted, burnt notes, noticeable hops, and prevalent esters. This Baltic Porter will have a clean profile with flavors reminiscent of rich, dark sugar, vinous and herbal notes, some dark fruit, and just enough dark chocolate and coffee to bring everything together.
