A big new lineup of "Imperials" at Trinity this week, had to try them all. Next up was the new Imperial Porter.
A: On top of this beer sits a dark khaki head, and laying underneath is a black meets mahogany brown. Small streaks of lacing.
S: An odd mixture of candy and roasted malt. A caramel coffee creamer comes to mind.
T: Dark chocolate, barley, and a toffee candy sweetness. Not too much of a hit from the hops. Has a really enjoyable roasted malt quality that doesn't dominate, and lets the rest of the flavors compete with one another. There is a faint vanilla taste lurking in there, having an almost Charleston Chew quality. A hint of smoke.
M: Rather thin body, and less carbonation than desired, but it is smooth, overall, and works in favor of the beer.
O/D: This might have been the best beer of the night. A very enjoyable porter. It was dubbed as Baltic in style, but a good porter regardless of naming. It's a winner.
