Deep garnet in color, rich, malty, very smooth lager Originated in the countries bordering the Baltic Sea, this beer was influenced by Russian Imperial Stouts and British Porters. A very smooth lagered beer with the character of roast malt and dark sugar flavors. Fruity from the higher alcohol, full bodied, and a low hop bitterness adds to the complex tastes of the Baltic Porter. Hints of chocolate, port like flavors, coffee, and raisins Chuckanut Baltic Porter is mouth-filling and very easy to drink due to its lager yeast and cold fermentation.
