Bottle. Dark brown / black color with a small fizzy off-white head. Aroma is moderate malty, chocolate, coffee, moderate to heavy hoppy. Flavor is moderate to heavy sweet and bitter with a average to long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

A very dark brown beer with a slight red shine under a fluffy brown head. The aroma is lovely both hoppy and roasted malty, the hops giving it notes of citrus, and the roasted malt giving it notes of coffee and a bit of chocolate. The flavor is sweet malty with quite strong roasted notes, but in a very smooth way, opposite many porters more dry roastiness. The flavor also contains notes of good coffe and chocolate, as well as a bit of citrusy from the hops. The end is very smooth but also OK bitter, with the citrus and chocolate lingering for a long time. The body is quite light (especially considering the alcohol content), but in the aftertaste the alcohol bites slightly in the tongue and cheeks. Nice one.

(Bottle 65 cl) Pours a clear, dark mahogany with a beige head. Roasted, yet fruity nose. Medium body with plenty of hard roasted malt, but never burned. Lightly hoppy finish on a sweet background. Lovely. 200506

-------- /> I would like to rerate this beer.

Dark brown color. Aroma of chocolate and vanilla. The flavor is based on caramel, with a hint of roasted malt and liquorice and coffee. A bit dry and not mature.
