3.4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 14/20
Bouteille de 500ml. Batch 502. Ce Porter est brun très foncé presque noir. La structure mousseuse est important, épaisse et de couleur brune. Le nez est fruité avec des arômes de fruits secs et des notes rôties. La bouche a une drôle de texture à la fois ronde à l’attaque et mince à la finale. Elle est sèche. Les goûts sont de fruits secs, de chocolat et de café.

3.9 AROMA 9/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
It pours a dark, opaque sable with a VERY thick, if not too persistent, light brown head. The bottle I got foamed like nobody’s business, so be careful if you have this in a bottle! Aroma is rich, smoky, mocha-like with a hint of sweetness, very inviting. Flavor is like fine roast coffee with chocolate undertones, but it got a bit tinny as I got near the bottom of the bottle. Texture is smooth and fairly tingly. Satisfying.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 5/5 TASTE 5/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
This porter from Nøgne Ø rests comfortably in my snifter glass, its near-black body flaunting a thick, dense medium tanned head with a certain amount of stayer in it. Looks good. Smells just as nice, a bit of toast, hints of sour yeast and strong overtures of chocolate. Taste is a bit of toffee and mild coffee notes. Short aftertaste, and I had actually expected a bit more on that part. Palate is decent and alcohol is extremely well hidden, making this a very drinkable porter. Nøgne Ø may not quite reach to the top with this one, but it’s certainly a well decent brew.

(on bottle)This a porter; it has ROAST written all over. Coffee, burnt cane sugar, wood, smoke, english liquorice, Nordsøolie and malt; that´s it. Great brew; thx. Sigmund.
3.5 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 14/20
Black color with a nice beige head. The taste is sweet with roasted malts as the body. Finishes with a nice hoppy but balanced bitter palate.
4 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 17/20
On keg at Bacchus, Newcastle. A black beer with a thick, light tan head. Aroma primarily of chocolate with dark malts and coffee. Coffee flavour with roasted barley, burnt toast and caramel. Medium carbonation with a light CO2 prickle and a foamy mouth-feel. A nice long bitter, roasty burnt toast finish.
