Baltika Dark Beer, 5.6% ABV
This is definitely one of the best Baltika beers. There is a whole range of Baltika beers, each one curiously numbered. They have a range of different colours and subtly different flavours. Overall, this one might be described as somewhat syrupy. It has a gorgeous chocolate taste, with a sweet finish and a musty, though sweet texture. It’s head leaves fairly thick laces around the glass, and its aroma fills the room with charcoal. This is a full-bodied Russian beer with pleasingly little carbonation, allowing the flavours to fill your senses unhindered.
