Commercial Description:
A.Le Coq Porter is a strong dark beer that can rightfully be considered to be the successor of the world-famous "Imperial Extra Double Stout." Its mature character and perfect taste are derived from sparkling spring water and extra dark caramel-malt.

Dark-brown beer with medium smooth beige head. Aroma is nice and balanced: balanced roasted, slightly sour and even alcohol may be found. Flavour is balanced and malty and it differs from the aroma: flavour is more sweet and not so roasted than aroma. Quite easy and light to drink but still nice and oily. A.Le Coq Porter is full of surprises: aroma and flavous differs from each others: easy to drink but still bootilicious and overally balanced and high-quality beer.

Clear mahogany hue below a thick and creamy off-white head. Smoky nose with teases of cherries and coffee. Restrained toast and cookie flavors at first, evolving into a roasty sensation with light grape acidity and finishing with light coffee bitterness into a chocolate aftertaste. Oily in the mouth with prickling carbonation and a medium weight.<br /><br /> What’s there is good, but it’s mostly sharp smoke and roast with little intensity otherwise.<br /><br /> 50 cl bottle, best before 04 April 2009.<br /><br /> Medium sized, creamy, light tan head floats on a clear, matte, medium brown body. The aroma is surprisingly light all the way around, primarily focusing on cherries, cocoa powder, watered down instant coffee an peanuts. In the background, something like rubbing alcohol on cotton balls. Light to moderately sweet tasting of light caramel and watered down coffee. No acidity of any sort to be found. Finishes kind of woody, water and then limps away. Light instant coffee aftertaste. Medium-light bodied with a watery texture and very average carbonation. Flat and dull; nothing offensive, but no reward for consumption. 50cl bottle, bbe 21.07.08.

Hard to really fuck up a baltic porter for me and this is pretty decent. It has the roasted malty aroma, it is a bit sweet and has a dry end. Body could be a bit thicker and so on but I like it.
