Bottle. Nearly a black pour wtih a nice beige head. Coffee, milk chocolate, roast and some very dark dried fruits. Flavor is toasty and has a good chocolate backbone. Fruity also. Nice beer.

Poured black with a creamy light brown head. Pleasant aroma of roasted malts, chocolate, licorice, and a little nuttiness. Mildly sweet with just a bit of bitterness.

Bottle. Completely black color, low tan head. Aroma of resiny hops and black soil. Wickedly smooth mouthfeel and a taste with plenty of chocolate and black patent malt. Very drinkable and very tasty!

oured from the tap into a pint glass The color is a dark black with some maroon highlights and about two fingers of foamy brownish head and some nice lacing left on the glass. The smell is roasty with a little dry malt aroma. There is some dark chocolate aroma in the nose that has a coffee roast like aroma too. The taste is roasted malt and is filled with a nice dry chocolate flavor that sets back a bit to hang with a coffee flavor that mixes with some nice toast burnt flavor. The feel of this beer is complex but smooth as it goes down with ease and has a silky aftertaste that is more enjoyable then a lot of Porters I have had. This one is one of the better ones.

Pours a pitch black colour with light brown head. The aroma is roasted malts, dark chocolate and hops. A bit sweet taste with a bitter finish includes also coffee, syrup and chocolate. Medium body and oily texture. No carbonation. Nøgne Ø quality.

Pours a dark black with a large and bubbly dark brown head. Aroma is sweet and has hints of coffee, dark malts, and chocolate. The flavor is slightly sweet, with brown sugar, molasses, dark fruits, dark malts, and coffee. The coffee gets stronger on the finish. Very smooth beer.

Very nice, well-balanced porter. Pours with a black color, culminating in a medium-sized and resilient dark tan head. The lacing is tight and sticky and clings to the glass long after this tasty treat is gone. The nose is distinctly roasted malts: charcoal, coffee and chocolate. The mouth feel is creamy and the flavor profile is top quality: roasted malts, some chocolate and hints of coffee. Another fine product from Nøgne Ø.
