Bottle. [thank you, faroeviking]
Pours black with slight brown edges. A big, dense, creamy, light-brown head. Great duration. Aroma is sweet, good chocolate, some roastiness. Softly carbonated with a general nice creaminess - but seems a little thin. Flavour has lots of sweet, fat chocolate with a good roasted coffe note in the aftertaste. Some bitterness as well. Good porter!

Black porter with a little, brown head. Malt and coffee aroma, but the flavour lacks a little bitterness and the beer was a little thin.

Bottle from Marcus - Thanks! Interesting aromas of toasted malt, chocolate, reddish fruits, and perhaps a bit of coffee. Opaque brown/black color with a beige/tan head that’s respectable. Medium body with smooth frothy carbonation. Flavors are sharp burnt malt, coffee, chocolate, hop bitter and more. The finish is dry, and a bit muddy as the flavors intermingle. Decent amount of burnt toast and bitter. Really good to drink.
