Valmiermuizas Alus - Riga Porter Cherry

The supple delicacy of Jugends and the velvety aroma of Baltic porter once met in Riga's famous porterhouses to stimulate vigorous discussion of successful shops and thoughtful conversations about the spirit of the age. Valmiermuiža's small brewery offers another porter classic dedicated to Riga's boom years, this time – with the juiciness of cherries ripened in Latvian gardens. A sip of the darkest chocolate color with brown foam. In the multi-layered bouquet, the depth of sweet country rye bread with balanced notes of prune and very ripe, juicy cherries. The full-bodied, velvety taste asserts itself with pumpernickel, rum-soaked raisins and a nutty softness, complemented by a calm touch of cherry. Aftertaste – slightly bitter coffee with a hint of juicy berries.
