For those unfamiliar with Solidarity Baltic Porter:
Solidarity
Solidarity or Death
In the 1980’s, the Solidarity trade union movement in Poland sought and achieved an end to the official Communist Party’s hegemony over the workers’ movement. We tip our hats to the activists with Solidarity, a robust reminder of Baltic foresight in activism and strong beer.

Malts: Simpson Golden Promise, Special Pale, Simpson Aromatic, CaraPils, Simpson Dark Crystal, Simpson Chocolate, Simpson Black
Hops: German Perle, two additions (one at each end of the boil)
Yeast: Garage Brewery Frisco Lager
Color: 26 degree SRM (or, almost black)
ABV: 8.5%
IBU: 18

I bought a couple of the Hoppin Frog bourbon barrel stout's. It is AWESOME!
I do have to say that I also loved the New Albanian Solidarity Porter, went back for several tastes. Had you been selling it retail I would have bought that as well. Guess I need to go see Rog to get that one.

Had the Schlafly Winter ESB last night. Was quite impressed with it.
Thinks the frosty mug is the low point in American history.
