Opaque dark brown beer. Softish palate. Tangy rich porter. Great flavour for it’s modest abv. The tobacco seems to add richness and body and are most noticeable in the aftertaste. Finishes soft and tangy. an intriguing porter.

Benjii (2337) - Edinburgh, SCOTLAND - MAY 6, 2012
Bottle from Le Langhe, York. Pours a very dark brown colour with a decent tan head that dies away fairly quickly. Aroma of roasty malt, tobacco, hazelnut chocolate and alcohol. Similar flavours and quite nutty with coffee and caramel to finish. Mild carbonation and CO2 prickle with an oily mouth-feel. Not bad.

Rune (4924) - Tromsø, NORWAY - APR 19, 2012
Thanks to the friendly waitress at Open Baladin Roma who gave me a taster of this one. Clear, dark brown body, bright and dark surface. Dark malts and dark fruits to the nose. Rather complex flavour character starting with dark caramel and coffee and finish off with dusty hops and semi-roasted bitterness. Nice, indeed (Roma, 31.03.2012).
