Cask at Bishops arms malmö. Really nice black color with a fizzy white bubblehead. Malty and roasty aroma with plenty of coffee. Mouthfeel really fresh but a bit watery. Taste is roasted and malty with coffee and dark fruit. Nice!

(Cask at Akkurat, Stockholm, 16 Aug 2008) Black colour with frothy, pale brown head. Malty, roasted nose with notes of coffee and cocoa. Roasted, malty taste with coffee, dark chocolate, cocoa and dark fruit. Mainly coffee in the finish. Body slightly below medium, mainly dry. Nice porter with a distinct coffee bite.

Dark brown with a medium brown head. Rosted and coffee tones. Malt, roasted coffee taste. Medium body with a shrt, dry aftertaste.

(Draught) Pours black with a medium brown head. The aroma is a well balanced mix of coffee and malt roast with a rather dry sting. Undertones of sweet liquorice, light sweet and subtle dark fruits, dark chocolate, dark syrup, blackberry jam, wet gravel, juicy rye bread and some hops (maybe grass, herbs and orange). The flavour is of mild coffee, cocoa/chocolate, mild blackberry jam, liquorice, some rye bread and light hops. Light sweet and light to medium bitter. The mouthfeel is soft and light creamy. The finish is light hoppy, light roast/coffee dry and light sourish. Light to medium bodied. Very well balanced for something with Java in the title.

<i>Draught at the Rover, Göteborg, Sweden</i>. Black with creamy beige head. Roasted, slightly sourish malts, with clear but yet discrete coffee notes. Quite light in body, soft carbonation. Dry and bitter, and acidic. I agree with the previous rater that it would have been much better without the sourness.
