A Note on This Beer
The folks at Anchorage Brewing reign supreme as the Alaskan gods of craft beer. When they whip up something new, the masses come flocking and have no choice but to indulge in the latest offering from the brewery’s divine glow!
In this case, “divine glow” means “killer dark beer” — it’s today’s ode to the Norse goddess of wealth and fortune, presented as this awe-some Bourbon Barrel Aged Baltic Porter!
Aged for a whole year in Woodford Reserve Bourbon barrels, the cold-lagered base gifts us a clean, crisp mouthfeel, with malts presenting light aromas of smoky char and dark fruits. The flavors are then rounded by the Bourbon barrels’ decadent notes of caramel and oak.
The brewers finished the beer on Madagascar vanilla beans, granting each full-bodied sip a creamy sensation as well as a swath of silky smooth flavor on the finish.
Early purveyors are already praising the flavors of this just-tapped limited release, exclaiming “Darn perfection!”
You Anchorage fanatics are familiar with the idyllic dark brews being magically crafted up North. If you’ve yet to try an Anchorage beer, you have to hurry! They’re the stuff of legend, and it’s a temptation of the fates to wait on grabbing a bottle for yourself!
