Smooth in palate as well. An excellent winter beer. ryanknock (150), San Francisco, California, USA Jan 19, 2009 The overt maltiness of this approaches and old ale or barleywine, but it is still a rounded rich and creamy brown porter. Seems well aged, with a slightly musty character. Caramel and coffee are the most prominent flavors, with dried fruit and a slight roast coming through. thebeertourist (2753), Oslo, Norway Jan 18, 2009 Bottle. Dark red-brown colour with a nice beige head. Coffee, berries and caramel aroma and flavours. Well-balanced between dry roast, sweet caramel and tartness from the berries.
