Growler shared at the QC tasting, pours a very dark brown nearly black with a light brown head, nice strong chocolate aroma mixed in with spices, the flavor has an awesome milk chocolate front end with a finish of cinnamon and vanilla, nearly perfect mouthfeel, awesome beer.

Groler from glouglouburp split with mcberko. Pours solid black/dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of espresso, dark chocolates, oak and vanilla. Flavour is the same but with some light smokiness and some hints of coca-cola (somehow not in a bad way!). Medium bodied, thick, complex and well balanced. Nice.

75cl growler shared by phredrik. Pours black with a brown head. Aroma is rye bread, roasted malts, bitter coffee, slight earthy notes, cocoa nibs, vanilla, cinnamon, dark bitter chocolate, coffee beany quality, textbook porter’ish roasted malts, caramel and a very nice hazelnut character. So blanced aroma. Taste is Roasted earthy malts, caramel, vanilla, cocoa, dry bitter coffee, dark dried fruits, sweet liquorice and a huge amount of balance and stylistic sickness. This is a dreemy porter! Favorited <3 !

750 ml growler shipped to me by jedwards - Thanks a lot! Shared with the guys Rasmusott and Jaksmart. Pours black with a small brown head. Aroma has some robust roasted qualities, dark bread, strong fresh grounded coffee, caramel, cocoa, cinnamon, vanilla, a hint of figs and dark fruits, hazelnuts, extremely delicate and exactly what I want from a winter porter. Taste is very rounded and rather sweet, roasted, dark bread, burnt carame, vanilla, cinnamon, fresh espresso coffee, chocolate, dark fruits, the coffee is slightly earthy. Hands down, the best porter I’ve ever had.

750mL growler, sent from Glouglouburp (thanks Dany!), pours a cola brown / black with a small tan head. Aroma has loads of espresso and chocolate, with also lots of vanilla beans and minimal roasted notes. Flavour of vanilla beans upfront, espresso, some coca cola notes, and mild chocolate. Medium body with lingering cola and vanilla notes. Great porter.

750 swingtop growler shared by BA alcstradamas! Dark black pour, quickly dissipating carbonation and an aroma of coffee, cinnamon and a little green pepper. Flavor is dark roasted malt, nice & spicy cinnamon, mellow chocolate and slightly sweet on the finish. Very good, hoping I get a chance to try more of their beers down the road.

Growler from J & J ....Dark brown pour , thin beige head , excellent lacing . Aroma is sweet caramel malt with notes of coffee , vanilla and roasted malt . Flavor starts with dark chocolate and roasted malt notes and goes to a spiced vanilla dryness . Medium bodied , low to medium carbonation , Dry roasted vanilla coffee bean finish . Excellent

Courtesy of fbm115. almost black, beige head, fades quickly, spotty lacing. Chocolate, smoke, coffee, light roast. Coffee comes through a bit more in flavor, detracts a bit for me, but still really solid. Creamy smooth mouthfeel.
