RCH Old Slug Porter

Botttled. Clear brown coloured with a huge beige head. Roasted aroma of coffee and dish washer. Roasted flavour with notes of fruits, coffee and hops.

Cask at The Bishops Arms, Gothenburg, Sweden. Black with small beige head. Burnt toffe and coffee in the aroma. Lether, chocolate and horseblanket in the flavour too.

Cask @ Bishop’s Arms Malmö. Black/ dark brown colour. Small tan head. Roasted malt and chocolate in the aroma. Taste is roasted malt, coffee and chocolate. It has more stout taste to me than porter taste. But i like it.

Damn...for reason porters make my throat close up a bit. weird anyways, porter black. nice creamy black coffee/chocolate tones. Nicely balanced but obviously not too complex. Yummy indeed. I couldnt really catch any of the black cherry or black currant it goes on about above. Head is definately not white...Poor Dickens might not have much to write about on this one, but im sure he woulda enjoyed it. ...

Sampled from bottle. Pours blackened-ruby with a creamy tan head and sheets of lacing. Aroma is mild with only some earth and coffee notes. Flavor is balanced and dominated by roasted malts. Medium-bodied and lightly carbonated. Very easy to drink but lacks the chocolate flavor I expect in a porter. The label could have easily read ’stout’.

Very dark color with a nice porter taste. Lacks the special something that makes a good porter a great porter....hence it’s only a good porter.

(Cask) Black reddish colour, thick white head. Hoppy, toffee nose. Flavour from coffee & chocolate. Somewhat thin. Bitter finish.

Black/dark brown. Billowing tan head is dense, bubbly, rocky. Chocoffee, roasty malt, subtle dark fruits-aroma. Same flavor with a touch of yeast, also- very nice. Medium body, dry finish, nice carbonation, roasty and bitter chocoffee aftertaste. Hops allow themselves to be known in taste and aroma as it warms.
