Cask at Ølbaren. A great porter. Coffee aroma, and taste. Finish is sweet and creamy. A great porter with great complexity.

This bottled brew from Patrick767 at a rating party poured a head of bubbles that were and left behind a opaque no visible carbonation black colored body and a fair lacing. The aroma was brown malt mild hop and dark malt. The mouth feel was weakly tingly at the start mediumly tingly at the finish hoppy aftertaste. The flavor contained notes of dark malt and brown malt. A decent one that I would consider having again.

Aroma of roasted coffe, and dark, sweet fruit. The apopearance is dark brown, with a purple tinge. The flavor is roasty to be sure, but with a steady component of fruity sweetness. The surprise here is the finish, it has a nice bite from hops which didn’t make themselves evident previously. Great porter.

A nice roasty, chocolate, coffee, dark fruit, oak nose. Pour is a very dark brown/black with a pretty good light tan head. Flavors of coffee, roasted malt, and caramel. Much roastier than the olfabrikken porter, but not as complex.

Black; creamy tan head. Rich depth of dark malts. Dry, bitter, rich; creamy. A very excellent porter.

500ml bottle, 28th Feb 2008. Pours pure black with a tan head. Aroma of medicinal herbs and toasted malt, with coffee and fruity hints. Great aroma of dark roasted malt, camphor, salty liquorice and bitter chocolate and coffee. Perfectly smooth as it goes down. Great stuff!

Thick and black, billowy tan head. Aromas of sharp cinnamon and cabernet, charcoal and coffee. Many layers of complexity. Tastes of mayan chocolate and roasted malt. Bright, defined fruit flavors open up with warmth, revealing raspberry and red currant. Smooth palate, not overpowering with a touch of lactose sweetness. Prime.
