Bad Seed Baltic Porter
Bad Seed's first attempt at a bottom-fermented porter, brewed for Baltic Porter Day in January 2025. It is soft, roasted and powerful, with big malt character and notes of chocolate, caramel and liquorice, a full mouthfeel and a dry finish. Danish examples of the style go back some 20 years, to breweries that were then among the few brewing good beer in the country.
