Description
The Mistress is inspired by the strong and dark baltic porters that, for centuries, have been brewed and consumed by people around the Baltic Sea. Among them the inhabitants of the island where our brewery lays. Brewed traditionally with a mix of domesticated and wild yeast and then put to rest in freshly emptied bourbon barrel for four years. Black and viscous with a small tan head. Aroma is dominated by tobacco, leather, dried fruit, smoke and warm asphalt. Mellow carbonation and slick mouthfeel with complex flavours of dark chocolate, coffee, burnt sugar and black cherries. The bourbon character is well integrated and manifests as vanilla, wood and a hint of warming alcohol. Long mouth coating aftertaste with a sticky caramel sweetness and lingering roasted bitterness.
