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.

NICE malty AND WINEY with adequate flavors of chocolate and licorice a bit nutty with a slight old waxy flavor. beer is thinnish and a bit slick it is altogeather weak uncarbonated and unremarkable in that respect. a butterscotch brandy port kind of taste and mouthfeel toward the back of the palate. interestingly demonstrative in taste would be better with a tad more kick and carbonation or smoothness or body.

Bottle, 500 ml. Pours dark bronze, with decent, but short-lived, head. Malty on both the nose and the palate, and decent mouthfeel and flavour.

Bottle at Bishops Arms, Avenyn, Gothenburg. Dark brown color with a beige head. Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, smoke and light hoppiness. Taste of roasted/lightly burned malt, dark chocolate, coffee, some sweetness, smoke, hints of hop bitterness. Medium bodied. Smooth and dry mouthfeel.

Dark dark brown pour. Tan head. Earthy, roasted malts, slight mocha. A fair amount of carbonation. Could be a little smoother, clean finish though. A good example of the style.

pours dark with a small head. chocolate, roasted malts, some toast flavours. not as flavoursome as other porters but well-balanced and a good drinking session choice.
