Day 17: Dominion Baltic Porter

Name: Dominion Baltic Porter

Brewer: Dominion Brewery - Ashburn, VA

Style: Porter

Alcohol Content:


Review: Sorry, Northern Virginia. Dominion Brewery is shutting it's doors and moving to the first state - DE. The Baltic Porter is a worth adversary to the run-of-the-mill porter. This chocolaty, caramel malt brew has a sweet full-bodied flavor to match it's brown-to-black opaque appearance. Some toasty flavors drift in and out as well. The beer manages to stay dry enough to be enjoyed multiple times in succesion thanks to a good balance of hops at the finish. This beer isn't spectacular, but a solid companion to hearty stew or rich dessert.

P.S. Thanks to Danny for sharing this Porter, as well as the following few reviewed beers from his substantial cache of beers. How big a cache? Think right-wing survivalist that hoards guns in a cabin, except replace cabin with garage and guns with beer.

Rating: 4/5

Recommend? YES
