Fade To Black Volume 2 - Smoked Baltic Porter
Left Hand Brewing Company
Longmont, Colorado
ABV 7.80
Style: Smoked Baltic Porter
C: Appears clear on the edge of the glass
H: Dark Brown
N: Smoked Grain/Meat/Wood, Salt, and Charcoal
The Ferm: Well just like "The Unforgiven 2" or hell the entire ReLoad album from Metallica this beer just falls flat on it's face. I know that Volume 1 was a different beer....I reviewed it here ---> Volume 1
I am finding out that I am not a huge fan of Porters especially the smoke-y ones. There seems to be a place for this beer, and that would be at a BBQ, or maybe a marinade.
The beer has a strong roasted malt forward flavor and lingers with a salty bitterness. This almost tastes like a dry oyster stout.
Well I think I will just leave this one on the shelf as I am not a fan.
Score: 2.89
