Nice pour, dark and creamy. Has aromas and flavors that are dark and roasted. Has hints of dark chocolate and malts, just what the doctor ordered.

550ml bottle. A black bodied beer with brown edging, a thick & lasting creamy beige head and a light lacing. Aromas of roasted malts, milk chocolate and raisins. Sweet, fruity & chocolatey flavours initially, with dark chocolate, coffee and roasted malt flavours coming through for bitterness. Great, medium body with low to medium carbonation and a dry body.

Light but bright roasty flavor. Aroma is minimal but the color and head is great to look at. A little carbonated which adds complexity in my opinion.

Serving: 12 oz. bottle. Appearance: Cola brown with ruby highlights. Large, creamy, tan head that has great retention. Aroma: An off metallic note is the first thing I notice but thankfully it fades quickly. Roasted malt, mineral and earth in the nose. Flavor: Definitely a roasty porter with notes of mineral, some dried fruit, and a hint of alcohol. Nice balance and structure. Palate: Medium-high carbonation with a medium-rich mouthfeel and a medium, roasty finish. Overall: A classic and great porter that is always worth a go.

Very dark brown to the point where it’s basically black to the naked eye. Not as dominated by a burnt, roasty taste as some porters and an aftertase of fruit is definitely noticable. Good beer though.

(bottle) Dark brown colour with a massive brown foamy head. Mildly sweet roast-malty aroma with notes of chocolate, coffee and a whiff of smoke in the background. Sweet-bitter flavour, medium bodied with a creamy mouthfeel. Roasty malt-character with notes of chocolate, caramel and traces of mocha; medium-dry sweet and bitter roasty, also minimal vinous and subtle fruity finish, which lasts for a while. Very pleasant. 06.X.09
