From bottle from Belmont Station. Black with tan head. Aroma is bourbon and molasses. Taste is roasted, caramel malt, bourbon, and sweet chocolate. Oddly boozy and light at same time. Interesting porter.

Sigmund (4280) - Tau, NORWAY - JUN 13, 2013
500 ml bottle, from Lřvbjerg, Ikast. ABV is 7.0%. Black colour, ruby in the highlights. Large beige head. The aroma is bready and moderately roasty, some fruity hints too. Pleasant and smooth flavour of moderately roasted malts, black bread, mild coffee, chocolate and caramel, but not too sweet. Very moderate hops. A beer I might well buy again.

maeib (7634) - Wootton, Northampton, Northamptonshire, ENGLAND - MAY 31, 2013
Bottled 25/05/13. A really dark brown coloured beer with a grey head. This isn’t much more thana schwarzbier for me. A bit of roast and a bit of caramel. The nose is better than the mouth. A drinkable but disappointing strong dark lager.

AndyW68 (437) - Louisville, Kentucky, USA - MAY 30, 2013
I like it, but dont love it. Deep dark brown with surprisingly light tan head. Aroma is caramel and over-ripe plum. Taste is sweet dark fruit. Not black strap, but it leans toward a sweet malt.

jehoesefat (106) - Kapolei, Hawaii, USA - MAY 22, 2013
Smells like a Milky Way bar -- chocolate and caramel! Pours dark brown with red tints when held up to the light, with a thin tightly packed tan head. Tastes like cocoa, hardly even seems like a beer! Very tasty. Thick consistency, goes down smooth and creamy.

UncleKorm (287) - Colorado Springs, Colorado, USA - MAY 21, 2013
Bomber bottle poured a deep dark clear brown hue w/ a big thick tan head slowly dissipating and good lacing. Medium to strong aromas of caramel, roasted coffee, and licorice. Initial flavor is light sweet w/ a light bitter finish.Tastes are chocolate, licorice, and caramel. Medium bodied and soft carbonation.

dexcansino (264) - Andalucía, SPAIN - MAY 14, 2013
Cerveza negra con espuma densa y cremosa. Sinceramente esperaba mucho más de esta cerveza. El olor a grano tostado, y el sabor a café, regaliz y algunas especias ligeramente picante al final. Sin embargo, me parece que tiene bastante presencia alcohólica para tener sólo siete grados, y aunque tiene cuerpo medio, me resulta algo aguada.
