Tiny specks of reddened light sparkle through this dark beer. A thick and creamy looking head sits atop. Strangely fresh aromas, quite cider-like. A bit sour and boozy on the nose really. The sour edge is still there in the mouth but nice roasted malts and chocolate calm it right down. Quite fruity, in a deep way and christmas-y warm to boot. Hints of liquorice in the aftertaste. Great texture to it too, airy and creamy. A bit of an odd porter.

Bottle from Ales by Mail. Very dark brown colour, big beige head. Sweet creamy malt aroma. Roasted coffee malt flavour. A bit watery. Nice bottle.

500ml Bottle - Dark brown with red tinges and a foamy head. Roasted malt, chocolate, orange and liquorice in the aroma. Roasted, smooth and malty taste with notes of burnt malt, chocolate, liquorice and coffee. Enjoyable.

Bottle. Almost black beer with a strong head. The aroma is lightly chocolate, and the flavour is watery, roasted, and coffee. Overall a reasonable roasted beer.

Botella, thanks Skinnyvikig for sharing. Unclear deep dark brown colour. Aroma of spice, coffee and plenty of caramel. Rather thin mouthfeel. Flavour is sweet with caramel, roasty malt, dark fruits and some bitterness. Thin porter.

Brown color. Aroma of apples (?) and cocoa. Dry mouthfeel, light chocolate and caramel flavor, medium-low bitterness. Boring.
