(Draught at the brewpub, Berlin, 19 July 2010) Reddish brown colour, slightly hazy, with frothy off-white head. Malty, slightly roasted nose with notes of dark fruit and caramel. Malty, slightly roasted taste with dried fruit, caramel, red berries and a mild spicy bitterness. Medium body, fairly sweet. More like a dark dunkel, than a porter. But quite nice.

Draught at the Hackescher Markt. Color brown/red with medium head. Aroma roasted malt, dark fruits, caramel. Taste dark fruits, sweet.More like dunkel than porter.

Very dark amber with a tightly packed off-white head. Great lacing and retention. Aroma of citrus, yeast and chocolate. Nice full body... quite sweet and malty, but balanced by some citrussy hops. The finish shows a lot of hop bitterness, and rounds off a pretty solid beer.

Draught. Roasted, weak coffee aroma. Almost black colour, looks cloudy. Creamy, semi-stable head. Flavour clearly of coffee. I guess this is more of a stout than a porter.

Draught at the brewpub. Black with no head. A weak aroma with some hops. Freash and pleasant palate. A bit burnt and grassy flavour. Not really porter-like. Some hoppy bitterness.

Draught at the brewpub. Dark ruby colour. Nice blend of hops in the nose. Notes of dried fruits in the flavour. Quite light bodied for being a porter. Some bitterness.
