Deep reddy brown, tiny off-white head. Cocoa powder aroma. Refreshing palate, pleasant carbonation. Fairly burnt taste. Long burnt finish. Decent hops, some raw fruity hop flowers detected. Fairly well balanced. Tasty, but I feel I’ve tasted it many times before. Very easy to drink.
Rerate: similar rating. This time it was a sweeter and more porridgey aroma. Taste was enormously husky, just full of dry grains. Still a very tasty beer - more like a brown ale than a porter. One of Flying Dog’s better brews.

A very light flavored porter. Roasted malt and coffee falvor with a dry finish. Pours dark with very little head. Good enough but not Flying Dog’s best...

Bottle from Copenhagen. Dark ruby, small head. Vinous, fruity, maly. Port-like sweetness, but with an ashy dry finish. Respectable.

Bottled - St Albans BF. A black beer with an off-white head. Some hops in the aroma with an oily fishy greasy feel. The taste is over heavy with heavy roast and an oily greasy texture. I wrote greasy again. Obviously I found it greasy! Oh well.
