12 ounce bottle from dmac. Pours clear nutty brow with a little bit of beige head. No real resemblance of a porter. The aroma is a ton of raspberries and a bit of malt character. The flavor is weak chocolate and roast. A bit nutty. Raspberry syrup. Medium body. Extreme carbonation. Dry finish.

12oz. Bottle: Brown in color w/ a small beige head. Aroma is of raspberry & malts. Flavor is fizzy raspberry, almost artificial, like a cartoon version of a raspberry porter. Reminds me of a funky flavored lip balm, Bonne Bell anyone? Something wicked this way comes...I hope it takes this beer with it.

(Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm) Dark reddish brown colour with frothy pale brown head. Fruity, malty nose with raspberries and chocolate. Fruity, malty taste with notes of raspberries, dark chocolate and cocoa. Fairly dry, not very bitter. Decent porter with a distinct raspberry character, but hardly groundbreaking.

Bottle thanks to 17th floor. Dark brown with ruby red/purple like tint and large off-white head. Aroma is big sweet raspberries though some roast and/or chocolate malt breaks through. Flavor is once again sweet raspberries with some roasted malt and coffee, it isn’t completely bad, but it’s not all that good either. Medium body with spritzy carbonation. A darker flavored alcopop.

Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm. Clear dark amber, airy head. Fresh raspberry jam aroma. Roasty notes lies underneath fresh raspberries. Sweet with clean crystal malt character. Light bodied with a metallic edge. Sharp empty finish with notes of blood and iron. Pointless.

Pours out a clear moderate to dark brown with an upfront aroma of raspberry. Taste is of raspberry, not over powering but nice balance of sweet and tart. Some roasted malt in there but overall the thin watery mouthfeel takes a bit away from this one but its in no way a bad beer.

Doesnt look like a porter, doesnt smell like a porter, sure as hell doesnt taste or feel like a porter. Well than it’s not a porter!!! Looks like Coke a cola with thin white head, decent lacing though. Aroma of fake rasberry candy, some chocolate, medicinal. Flavor is thin and watery, some cocoa with a gross stingy flavor from berries and hops maybe. I’m done with this before it even started. Drain pour!
