Victory Red Thunder is a Baltic Porter. So take some Baltic Thunder and age it in Wente Vineyards red wine barrels and you have yourself Red Thunder. I am getting some outstanding flavor coming from the barrel, the notes picked up from the red wine are really coming out. That mixes very well with the dark beer base of chocolate, mild roast, toffee and dark fruit. I need to try the original beer again, but the barrel aging seems to be improving Baltic Thunder quite a bit.
