| 3.4 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 13/20 | Jul 19, 2008 Bottle. Better than expected as most bottled beers I have tried from this brewery have been poorly bottled.Dark and quite sharp with none of the sulphuric taste that I have come across before. Some bitterness and a well rounded medium bodied porter. The title is a numerous play on words.The first bottle from this brewery that I can recommend. fonefan (11999), VestJylland, Denmark
