03-JUN-2012, bottle @Papsø tasting.
Clear, brown, almost no tan head.
Malty, some roast but more like caramel. Very thin. Easy drinking. For a 7.7% brew it is too thin.
OK, but hey...Give me more taste and body in a porter.

Bottle 33 cl. Courtesy of Rune. Pours a clear dark amber with an off-white head. Sweet roasty nose with some dark dried fruit. Medium body, some roast, dark fruits, a slight tartness and a massive malt bitterness that builds up quite a bit. An unusual Porter. 030612

2.5 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 10/20
330 ml unlabeled bottle directly from brewer kindly shared by Rune at Beer Session XVIII in Tromsø 030112. Clear dark mahogany body with beige head. Strangely passive aroma of slightly roasted but somewhat sour and watered malts, with hints of liqourice. Flavour is similarly subdued although not as sweet. Comments during the session suggest that the contents of the bottle sampled might be damaged as version on tap scored much higher with those which have tasted both. Overall surprisingly anonymous both for porters and quality yuletide brews.

22nd March 2012
Unlabelled bottle in Olhallen, Tromso. Was told this was 8.0% by the barman. Clear dark brown - red beer, good pale tan head. Semi dry palate. Slightly soft with fine carbonation. Nice malt, a little dark with unsweet dark chocolate. Whisper of coffee. Nice fruits underneath - well integrated dark cherry. Semi dry finish. Decent.
2.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 7/20
12.03.2012. 0,33l Bottle. Ølhallen Tromsø. Black colour with off-white head. Aroma of dark malts and sweetness. Rather flat flavours of dark malts. Sweet with notes of bitter hops. A little strange mouthfeel, that gives a feeling of bad balance. I dont know. Ok, but not great.
