mzaar (932) - Varberg, SWEDEN - JUN 7, 2013
Flaska. Svart öl med moccafärgat skum. Mörk choklad dominerar aromen, och sen fyller nötighet och ekfat på. Fruktighet, mörk choklad och rostad malt i smaken.

This was consumed at the brewery as part of a flight. The color was dark and rich with a light white head. This was rich on the tongue with both coffee and chocolate present as well as a touch of the oatmeal.

Westmeister (990) - Atlanta, Georgia, USA - MAY 28, 2013
Bottle. Pours a dark brown with a small tan head that resembled cocoa cream. Aroma of roasted malts, nutty, chocolate and the thicknes of the oatmeal. The flavor is in line with the nose, but perhaps a bit weaker. This may of been the first porter/stout/"dark beer" that my wife has ever asked for more of. Since the coffee components were not noticable she dug it. Overall, this is a solid porter and would reach for again.

Westmeister’s Birthday Beer Tasting Extravaganza Beer #8. In my notes I simply wrote "Nondescript Porter." Therefore, pours black with tan head, roasted coffee scent and taste, slighly viscous mouthfeel. Not a bad beer, but nothing special either. Bottle - Westmeister’s House - Cumming, GA

12 ounce bottle. Served in a pint glass, the beer pours a mahogany brown color with a half inch tan head that stayed around for a while. There’s also a good amount of lacing. The aroma is nice and sweet, the brew smells like roasted malt, chocolate, oatmeal, and a bit of dark fruit. Taste is similar to the aroma, but there’s also some coffee and some bitter hops in there too. Mouthfeel/body is medium, it’s well carbonated and enjoyable to drink. I thought this was a good brew, I’d buy it again. $1.99 for a single bottle.

Bottle. Poured a perfect dark brown color with a tan head and amazing lacing. Taste of roasted and toasted malts, oats, cocoa malts, malt heaven. High fizzy carb, medium body. Could drink this all day!
