Nøgne Ø Porter

Brewed by Nøgne Ø
Style: Porter
Grimstad, Norway

Serve in English pint, Stem glass

Nøgne Ø has made the best porter I have tried in a long time. Black in color. Aroma is full of roasted malt. Flavor is full with light chocolate and coffee and more malt. Many breweries would call this their stout.

Bottle. Black body with a big fluffy brown head. Moderate aroma of cocoa , sweet malt, and a tiny hint of roast is lovely but a bit too understated. Flavour is lovely, with light roast malt, and bitterness accenting a sweet malty flavour with some light fruit notes. Exceptionally well balanced, the lingering chocolaty roast in the aftertaste is enjoyable, showing a bit more of a coffee-like character than the initial flavour. Alcohol is deceptive. Smooth medium body. (3+) Very nice.

(bottle - 500 ml) Dark black pour with a creamy tan head. Aroma is heavy roasted malts with a lot of coffee aroma as well. Flavor begins with a roasted and slightly sweet malt taste that goes smoothly to a roasted and burnt malt/coffee middle. Finishes strong with a heavy roast and bitter note. Hops are subdued and the body is smooth and silky. Aftertaste is bitter and lingers for a bit. Nice porter.

Bottle. Deep brown, with a thin brown head. Sweet toasted malt aroma, with notes of cocoa. Good porter flavor - roasted malt, chocolate and coffee. long cocoa finish. Nice porter.

Thanks to Madsberg for this treat! Dense dark color with a good tan head. Roasted malt and caramel aromas easily rise to meet the nose from this one. Well balanced flavor fades into a long roasty finish that lingers with the coating of flavors left on the tongue. Very enjoyable Porter!

Bottle. Mocha coffee malt aroma. Dark brown/black color with a film head. Smokey espresso and light dark chocolate flavor. Very nice.
