Dry and grainy on the nose. The flavour is light sweet, slightly over medium bitter and light acidic. Notes of dark bread, crisp bread, burned grain, grapefruit, resin, dried meat and coffee beans. The mouthfeel is clean with medium carbonation. Burned, sourish and bitter finish. Medium bodied.

stefannilssons (329) - SWEDEN - DEC 29, 2011
Det här var en ytterst trevlig porter med relativt lite kaffe och relativt mycket humle i smaken. Men maltigheten är välbalanserad gentemot humlen och kombinationen blir väldigt lyckad. Slutsats: god, väldigt god.
