What about the beer?
Colour is black with a diminishing beige crown. Aroma has milk
chocolate, vanilla, roast and coffee. Taste starts with sweet boozy
roast. Sweet charred malts and milk chocolate take over with some coffee
and vanilla flavours. Towards the end chocolate-malty
sweetness gets joined with roasted smooth bitterness and spicy oak.
Aftertaste has sweet vanillaish chocolate, bitter cocoa powder and malty
roast.
Delicious sweet-spicy Imperial Baltic Porter. The bourbon barrel chips show
their nature in flavour. Otherwise it's smooth layers of chocolate
supported by roast and vanilla. Excellent dessert brew. Top of the art
once again by Ôllenaut.

This is the 10th post of a beer brewed by this great Estonian brewery - hopefully the series continues*. Haven't had an ordinary beer from them yet. All step out of the pack and have been excellent. So the song choice reflects my relationship with their brews.

* I count the whisky experiment with traditional Must Eksport in, because the beers chosen to the test were top of the notch brews. And other opinions don't matter.
