Dave and Kevie continue the HPR Beer Garden series with a look at a less known (and maybe a hidden gem to many) style of beer that originates from the north-eastern area of Europe: the Baltic Porter. Kevie Samples Öö from the Pojala Brewery in Estonia, whilst Dave samples Wave Tactics from another Estonian Brewery: Pühaste .

Gan Ainm says: Störtebeker - again

Störtebeker (the same Ö sound as Kevie's Öö!) once had a Nordik-Porter at 9.5% ABV which was an Eisbock (Ice Bock) made from their Stark-Bier (strong beer) at 7.5% ABV which is a Doppelbock (Double Bock), a strong, often dark, German lager (which might be mentioned in the upcoming episode about strong lagers).

The malty Nordik-Porter came in 0.5 l bottles and had heavy coffee and espresso notes and was really the perfect drink for a long cold winter evening.

Howerver, it's not available anymore, but they now offer Grand Marnier and Whisky cask-matured versions in 0.33 l bottles which I did not taste (yet).
