from dak’s bag of goodies on 5/31/10. batch 71b mindst 6-2010. opaque pour is a nearly black shade of brown with a huge tannish off white head. it smells of some sour raisins/vinous/plums, a little ashy roast, toasted nuts, caramel, cocoa and some tar.... it opens up a lot over ten minutes in the glass. roasty flavor shows a touch of sour raisins, molasses, coffee-like nuttiness, roast, vanilla, cocoa and a lightly acidic finish. again, it gets much better and softer as it warms. the over carbonated pour doesn’t make it into the texture. it is soft and lux. easy drinking richness. 7/4/7/4/16/3.8

Fruchtig-malziger Antrunk mit leichten Hopfennoten, durch den hier noch nicht erkennbaren aber schon wirkenden Honig eigen aber passend. Etwas gewürzig, eher mild, hier im Hintergrund trocken dunkelmalzig, im Abgang rückt dies in den Vordergrund. Der Honig ist auch hier kaum schmeckbar, wirkt aber ausgleichend zu der nun angenehmen Malnote. /11/11/11/Fl/11

Near black pour with a big beige head. Aroma roasted malt, dark chocolate and strong coffee. Flavor is deep and roasty, with said coffee and chocolate. Very nice.

Bottle, home, many thanks to Papsoe. Poured into goblet Westmalle glass, well gushed everywhere, lost quite a bit, the head is really nice white and creamy. Excellent. The colour is opaque and classic porter texture. Aroma is of sweet malts, raisins, soy source, some descent brie, some codffee and spices. Taste is coffee; raisins, sweet malts, some caramel, soy source, spices, a gorgeous and subtle peppery finish, very sweet and smooth on the palate and a bit dissapointing on that aspect as it’s actually a very well made and crafted beer. The complex flavour balances out .Somewhere between a porter and a Rochefort which is a massive win in my book. Respect should be given for this great feat. Really like this brewery and hope to get some more bottles. F1OneFan I need your help! Edit. As I drink through the body the honey shines through which is lovely.

Almost black pour with a big beige head. Aroma is ashy, roasty, toasty, with some bitter chocolate notes and hint of espresso. Flavor is very toasty and has hints of dark chocolate, espresso, and some char.
