About This Beer

Baltic Porters like Baltic Sunrise are notoriously challenging to brew. The style is actually more akin to a Lager than a regular English or American-style Porter. The use of clean, crisp Lager yeast makes for a very sippable body even with a high level of booziness — but, it also means that unless the brewers nail it, little flaws can shine through. That’s not a problem for the craft masters and World Beer Cup medalists at Hardywood Park!

Tasting Notes

For this 9.4% ABV Baltic Porter, the Hardywood Park team deftly coaxed out rich, robust cocoa flavors from Chocolate Malts. Then, they conditioned the brew on coffee beans from a local roastery to seal in layers of rich mocha deliciousness.  


Let a sip linger on the taste buds, and you’ll discover big roasty flavors and hints of dark cherry, all leading to a bafflingly smooth finish.

Coffee really dominates, loaded with roasted bean and chocolatey notes. Finishes more like a porter, smooth and malty, lingering smokey and lightly sweet.

Lots of typical Baltic porter notes, a little sweet and the 9.4% was noticeable but fairly well disguised . I didn’t get as much coffee as I was anticipating.

Whew. This is a good Baltic porter with just enough coffee to hide the high alcohol.
