Bottle @ Ulfborg Weekend, Jan 2011. Pours dark brown with a small white head. Nose is dark malts, vague roast and fruit. A bit ashy. Some chocolate. Dry end. Medium bodied. Good.

Bottle, courtesy of fonefan. A dark brown beer with a firm, dense, beige head. Roasted malts, coffee, some buttery cocoa hints and a touch of dried fruits on the nose. The flavor has coffee, roasted malts, cocoa and butter, some dried fruits blend in. Full-bodied, a bit heavy on the carbonation. Lasting vegetal, roasted coffee finish. A strange one indeed, not very well crafted either. 110128

Pours almost black in color with a tall khaki head. Slight sourness, roasted malt, acidic malt, coffee, and some cocoa powder. The flavor is a bit acidic. Far too much carbonation. Some roasted malt, coffee, dark chocolate and cocoa powder on the palate with a mild bitterness. A hint of earthy hops on the finish.

Bottle 330ml @ fonefan
Pours dark brown with a off-white head. Aroma has notes of rosted malt, coffee and caramel. Taste is medium sweet and light bitter. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle @ home. Pitch black opaque color, small to medium sized light brown head. Don’t smell anything, beer might be too cold or I might have a cold. Taste malts, lightly dark and roasted malts, slightly coffee and bitter. A bit flat though. Nothing really wrong but overall a bit flat. Decent carbo, low to medium body.

Bottle from Bierkoning. Dark brown body with puffy tan head. Malty and caramel nose. Taste of malts, sweet and bitter. A bit watery in taste and texture.

33cl, new exclusive Dutch brew Anno 2010, from De Bierkoning Amsterdam, not complex Porter, yet easy to drink, balanced, hazy, rocky head, nice brew

UPDATED: APR 30, 2012 33cl bottle from ABCBeers. Plenty of foam. A nice enough porter :-)
