Jan 7, 2007 Bottle; pours a deep and thick black with a nice dark brown head that slowly diminishes down to a thin line; great lacing. Sweetish aroma of roasted malts, molasses, chocolate, coffee and caramel. Lots to offer and enjoy in the aroma. Taste is more of the same with a roasty, thick and creamy palate and a gentle lingering aftertaste. Very nice porter; recommended.

Jan 7, 2007 33 cl. Clearly this beer was meant to rescue me from my bottle shop import-spree doldrums tonight. Had no idea what I was getting when I randomly grabbed it. Pours ebony with a towering, 7-finger, sudsy tan head. Lots of chocolate on the nose, lots of nothing at all else, too. Restrained attack, with medium body, tangible carb, and present flavor. Clean, chocolatey, very dry, a bit chalky mid-palate. Lingering, very chalky finish. I gotta get over my chalk hangup ’cause clearly it’s not a niche phenomenon.

Jan 7, 2007 Bottle shared by mikemac at the oak cafe. Poured w/ a big brown head and very black appearance. Aroma was a little chocolatey. Flavor was pretty sweet with some chocolate in the finish.

Jan 4, 2007 Bottle. A well lagered one from 1999, opened at Christmas 2005. Pitch black colour, small mahogny head. Sweet caramellic and roasty aroma with alc. and bitter chocolate. Smooth, roasty flavour with bitter chocolate, coffee, raisins and plums and alcohol. Long aftertaste. It really pays off to let some of the dark strong brews lager for some years, hidden away cool and dark.

Jan 2, 2007 Mineral, caramel, and yeasty nose. Pours a thin brown head with slight lacing. A dry, ashy, malt-husky flavor. Not a bad porter by any means.

does not count  Dec 31, 2006 Spledid porter from the Findlads biggest brewery. Propably the best store-sold porter available in Finland.
Palidor19 (1750), Brandon, Florida, USA
Dec 29, 2006 Very dark and very rich with cocoa. the nose overwhelm the smells of dark roasted malts and caramel. Even though it has high Alcoholic content, it does seem to hit me as other strong beer. perfect for a night cap
