Bottle at NK Bar. Dark brown colour with a brown head. Aroma is sweet licorice, roasted malt, coffee. Flavour is licorice, a bit spicy, roasted malt, coffee.

On tap @ Ørsted Ølbar. Pours black with a medium sized brown head. Aroma is of roasted malt and...well, pumpernickel. And so is the taste - sweet malty goodness with notes of chocolate, rye, coffee, sugar and spices. Body is surprisingly full considering its "low" alcohol content and the aftertaste is slightly bitter. This porter is awesome - I loved it and I hope I get to try it again.

Bottle. Pours black with a thick tan head that leaves a lot of lacing. Aroma is chocolate, roasted malt, dark fruit, liqueur, and -- maybe it’s just the power of suggestion -- pumpernickel bread, right down to the caraway seeds. Flavor is all of that plus some licorice. Like a Baltic porter with a good bit of rye and some spice. Medium mouthfeel. A bit astringent. Got it off the shelf a few days ago and now I see that it’s retired. Wonder how long it was sitting there! Glad I got to try it.

.5 liter bottle. It pours dark brown with a nice lasting tan head. The aroma is complex and intense with treacle, tar, fig and dark chocolate. Very dense. Not much that reminds me of pumpernickel though. The flavor is very intense with dark, bitter bakers chocolate, more treacle and tar, big time rye earthiness and a dry finish. It tastes bigger than it actually is. It rides the line between rich and satisfyingly dry with complex maltiness. Well balanced and quite lovely. I’ll be picking up more of these before they disappear!

Bottle at Henrik, Bergen. Pours a black colour with a light brown head. A wonderful roasted aroma with coffee, burned wood and dark chocolate. Coffee also present in the flavour with lots of roast, dark berries and leather. Has a slick and smooth mouthfeel, and a light bitterness. This is a very compact and solid ale with a delicious roasted touch. Looks like the aging killed the spices a bit.

Dark brown black with large head. Chocolate, coffee aroma and taste. Spicy aftertaste.

Thanks to barzigkin for sharing this bottle. The beer pours a black color with a tan head. The aroma has a lot of chocolate and roasted malt in it, as expected. The flavor is a bit different. There are still a lot of porter qualities such as the chocolate and roasted malt, but there is also a spiciness and a pumpernickel character which goes very well. The alcohol is definitely noticeable. Medium to thick mouthfeel and medium carbonation.

Bottle: pours motor oil reddish black, chocolate milk colored head that persists. Nose is roasted malts, chocolate, coffee, pumpernickel spice, milk thistle. More of the same on the palate with spice hops and roasted and chocolate malts. Dry and medium bodied. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone
