Jun 7, 2008 Bottle from Bier Koning. Smooth brown body. Slight head, not much. Malty, raisin porter nose. Taste of chocolate, coffee, caramel. Silky texture. A good porter. [Not sure why classified as a stout when the bottle says Porter on it.]

Jun 2, 2008 Bottle. [thank you Skortila/Caesar]
No fizz when opened, a light brown colour with no head. Aroma is ghastly, liqourice and washing powder. No carbonation at all - yuk! This didn’t go well.
