RCH Old Slug Porter

Sweet nutty aroma. Poured with a large and lasting head. Moderate to heavy bitterness. Tastes kind of like burnt chocolate. Taste improved as it warmed.

(Bottle) Pours a dark brown body (almost black) with a tan frothy (rootbeer-float-like) head. Aroma of chocolate and camp-fire roasted marshmellows. Smooth, creamy mouthfeel.

Cask conditioned at Akkurat, Stockholm. Black with a small beige head. Aroma from cocoa and some licorice. Cocoa in the flavor as well, a bit roasted and with fruity notes. Maybe a bit thin.

Casked. Dark amber colour, creamy small beige head. Weak roasted malt in flavour along with some malty hints. Dry (weak) roasted malt and some fruits in flavour. Dry finish and a bit sticky palate.

Very dark ruby, creamy small cappuchino head. Sweetish coffee nose. Roasted, a bit sweet, licorice in the flavor. Watery but interesting session porter.

Biscuit and chocolate malt aromas are somewhat vegetal. Opaque brown-black with low, off-white head that diminishes slowly to ring. Sweet chocolate and roasty flavours are well-balanced. Medium-light body with lively carbonation. Cask at GBBF 2005.

Bottle conditioned. Dark with a roasted wood like flavour.A full body made for a very pleasant porter.

Aroma of stale ale baking in the sun. Deep black with a two finger thick mocha head. muted flavors of roasted malt with some even more muted chocolate and coffe. There is a pervasive thinness that gives this a very pale ale mouthfeel. Combined with flavor that almost, but doesn’t quite come out and you have a better than average Porter, but not a first rate, porter.
