2.8 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 11/20 mcberko (4072) - Vancouver, British Columbia, CANADA - MAY 8, 2013
330mL bottle, courtesy of siranselm (thanks Marcus), pours a deep dark brown with a small tan head. Aroma of chocolate, some subtle winter spices (cinnamon and nutmeg), and light toasted malt. Flavour brings out soft chocolate malt, almost an irony bloody type taste and some subtle winter spices as aforementioned. Pretty soft carbonation, with a light body. Not the most interesting porter, nor are the flavours very well executed. Decent stuff, but nothing special.

Vinnare av gambrinus julölsprovning 2012. Nu när jag klämmer en flaska lite solo på initialt 12 grader så är det nog i kallaste laget. Krämig kropp. Hög kvalitet från ett bryggeri som annars har levererat en del tveksamheten på senaste

Bottle. A dark brown beer topped by a minimal-sized light beige head. Caramel and roasted notes, some coffee, and a light hoppy touch in the aroma. The flavor is mostly on the roasted side, with bready hints, toast and rye bread, as well as coffee and licorice hints. Dark dried fruits too. Full body, silky on the palate. Lasting roasted and burnt finish. A pleasant one indeed, but a bit one dimensional for my likings. 130215
