3.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20 Mellonius (71) - Rio de Janeiro, BRAZIL - MAR 6, 2010
600 ml bottle into tulip glass. Very dark but fluid, almost watery. Practically no head formation. Aroma is of strong roasted coffee. Taste is strong on the coffee note, with some coccoa on the background. I was expecting it to be more bitter and aggressive in the aftertaste, but this beer just goes down so smoothly it kept me wondering if it’s really fair to classify it as a Porter. Incredibly smooth beer. Interesting.
