3.8 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 15/20.35l @ Vihreä Haltiatar
Pours pitch black with low tan head. Aroma is coffee, roasted malts, dark fruits and syrup. Flavor is lactose, roasted malts, chocolate, coffee. Somehow a bit dissapointing flavor for a 99/99 beer imo.

Beautifully dark with long lasting head (the way i like it) . Silky smooth mouthfeel a nice porter
4.6 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 18/20
This black nectar folds into the glass crowned by a light brown head. Nose is malt, molasses and caramel. Thick viscosity and very creamy on the palate. Flavor is bold with forward taste of dark roasted malts, coffee, molasses, and dark chocolate. Finish is well balanced with some dry hops evident. An excellent porter. Try it with brats off the grill.

Big creamy longlasting cocoa colored head. Aroma is slightly rich, salty licorice, coffee, cocoa, salty caramel, roasted grain. Taste is smooth and roasted, coffee, dark chocolate, burnt caramel, hay, some licorice and grass. Longlasting bitterness. Not the best porter I’ve had, but it’s high up there.

The best widely available porter period. Dosent seem special at first, but the flavor kicks in when goes down the throat. Rich milk chocolate espresso, with a pleasant toffee nutmeg bite. Wow, if you havent had it, go get some right now. If you dont live in founders distribution area, consider moving...

One of the best examples of a porter that there is. Nice and smokey with a creamy mouthfeel. This is worth trying and isn’t incredibly rare like a few of their other beers.
