Dark, dark brown pour. Head disappeared fast. Chocolate, liquorice, and malt in the aroma, delicate bitterness finishes the sweet taste. Stay classy.

Big, beautiful black pour. It might be brown, but I can’t get any light through it to see. Starts out with a fairly large tan head. This quickly fades down to a thin layer of foam. Plenty of lacing left behind. Giant chocolate and coffee aroma. A bit of hops. Mostly chocolate and roasted grains though. Big chocolate and malty mouth. A slight bitterness and hop taste. Nice bitter aftertaste. Nice creamy mouthfeel, mixed with a slight bitterness and sweetness. Beautiful porter.

UPDATED: DEC 25, 2011 Bottle. Black. Small head over the average body.  Heavy roasted cereals. Bitter dry slight burnt notes. No head. Black oily. Coffe licorice notes. Dry bitter finish. No doubt a lot of hops as well

Aroma is roasty malt, coffee and salty liquorice. Flavour as well. Lazy rate, very good beer.

Draught @ Craft Beer Co., London

Pours pitch black with small head. Lots of vanilla, chocolate and honey on the nose. Vanilla and dry ashy chocolate on the flavor as well. Balanced and very smooth palate.

On tap at Craft Beer. Opaque black beer, short lived tan head. Smooth fresh dark malt. Minerals but no roast or bitterness. A little lactose sweetness. Well maybe a trace of roast then but very mild! Trace of smoke. Semi dry finish. Just a very nice Porter!
