4.1 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20
What a wonderful porter. Very storng fragrance. Same with the taste, very hard in the taste as well. The aftertaste is still very long.

Bottle. Very dark brown colour with a brown head. Sweet chocolate aroma with some vanilla, roasted malt, coffee. Flavour is sweet, roasted malt, chocolate, somewhat bitter. A bit thin. A decent beer, but it just lacks something to make it a good one.

Shared a 330ml bottle with Finn. The bottle was received from Systembolaget e-beställning. Big bubbles to a densely compact, tan-coloured head. Next to pitch black coloured body. Rich aroma of dark chocolate malts with a creamy touch. Dark caramel and cocoa in flavour ending with notes of coffee bitterness. Velvet mouthfeel. Well balance. A fine moment of drink pleasure (Tromsø, 27.09.2012).

Flaske 0,33l fra Systembolaget, e-beställning. Kjøpt sammen med Rune og delt under rateseanse hos meg 27 Sep 12. Svart. Høyt mokkafarget skum som etterlater mye mønster på glasset. Står som betong. God sjokoladearoma med innslag av lakris. Velbalansert smak med mye innhold. Ikke påtrengende. Sjokolade og lakris. Veldig engelsk i stilen.

3.6 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
Massor av skum som dock lägger sig ganska snabbt. Härlig torr doft av rostad malt och choklad. Lite vass och stickig munkänsla. Lätt kropp som nog är ganska söt, men ändå känns torr p g a en gräsig och örtig beska och en lätt bränd karaktär. Dessutom lite salmiak. God, speciellt doften är tilltalande. Kanske något obalanserad då jag inte riktigt får ihop smakerna.
