Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available brewery conditioned and cold filtered in 500ml bottles.
This fine beer is a blend of a mature old ale with a younger light beer - just as a true Porter should be. The marriage produces an extremely characterful brew which is dark in colour and complex in taste.

Pours black with a tan head. Three words about this beer: coffee, chocolate, malt. Nothing groundbreaking, but tastes like a porter. Just a tad of hops at the end. Nice.

Pours like a nut brown ale from the bottle with a frothy off-white head. Smells of char and hazelnut. Tastes of both with additional notes of wood chips, bakers cocoa, and tart cherry. Not bad at all.

Bottle, bought at Cockneys, Aarhus. My 4,200th rating! Pours great, clear mahogany with a nice, medium, creamy, off-white head. Fine duration, light lacing. Soft sweet aroma, light roasted, raisins and a touch of burnt maltiness. Some wood and liquorice as well. Low carbonation, just a tad thinish. Flavour begind quite sweet with caramel, then develops nicely towards a more fruity and roasted malts base. Great, long, dry and roasted aftertaste.

[bottle] Dark ruby colour with a beige medium-sized foamy head. Moderately sweet and roasted malty aroma with chocolate, licorice and a touch of mocha, accompanied by a shy and fruity, slightly spicy hoppy touch. Moderately bitter flavour, medium to light bodied with an almost crispy carbonation. Slightly burnt malty taste with licorice, coffee and subtle dark berry-fruity notes; moderately dry roasty bitter finish. Quaffable Porter, that might lack a bit body [13.XII.08].
