0,5 l bottle, bought at Bierei, Vienna. Superb appearance with a deep brown-black body, brutal stable, foamy and creamy beige head. Nice sourish-roasted aroma with coffee and some fruits. Deep roasted character in the flavor with coffe, dark chocolate, candy sugar, some wild-fruits. A bit of blackberries. Fine roasted coffe-like aftertaste.

Bottled(500ml). -Almost black coloured, big creamy brown head, fruity nose with touch of wood. Strong roasted malt, light smoked, and fruity notes with very discreet blackberry hints. Pleasant roasty aftertaste. Better than Honey Porter I’ve tried before.

500ml bottle picked up at Luvians Bottle Shop in St Andrews. Missing head, but nice laceworks on the glass. Clear russet coloured body. Berries and malts to the nose. Much the same goes for the rather special taste of blackberries joined by earthy malts. Very dry, in fact, a bit of old books. Medium bodied [06.11.2008].

Bottle 50cl. @ home.
Clear dark brown color with a small, fizzy, fair lacing, fully diminishing, off-white head. Aroma is moderate to heavy malty, roasted, caramel, coffee, berry notes, blackberry, wood. Flavor is moderate to light light heavy sweet and bitter with a long duration. Body is medium, texture is oily - smooth, carbonation is soft to flat. (130808)

Cask at Victoria Hotel, Beeston, Nottinghamshire. Very dark brown with a solid, creamy off white head. Faint malty aroma. Warm, rich malty taste, full of fibre and bread and dusty wrapping paper. Slight sweetness, presumably as a result of the blackberry juice. Some bitterness. Very good.

(Bottle, Monk’s Café, Stockholm) Black colour with lasting, frothy, pale brown head. Roasted, malty nose with coffee, milky chocolate and wild berries. Roasted, malty taste with notes of coffee, chocolate, wild berries and generous doses of cocoa bitterness in the finish. Fairly dry with lots of bitterness coming through towards the end, nicely balanced by the fruity blackberry flavours. Very nice beer.
