UPDATED: SEP 21, 2023 Bottiglia. Il naso trova sentori di orzo tostato. La finezza olfattiva è normale e si prolunga in modo sufficiente. Il manto birroso superiore resiste poco. La grandezza delle bollicine è a grana fine. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è pieno. Il dolce è medio in buona armonia con l'amaro medio. La forza gustativa è elevata e la durata è sufficiente. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Al palato arrivano note di caramello, miele, caffè, liquirizia, frutta secca, pane tostato, erbaceo ed agrumi.

UPDATED: MAY 5, 2023 12 oz. bottle from Total Wine. Pours a very dark brown color with a large khaki head and excellent retention. Some nitro-like action too. Very good lacing. Roasty dark chocolate and coffee aroma. The taste follows the nose: Dark malts and bitter dark chocolate flavors with a little coffee in the background. Very clean and smooth. Medium+ body. Medium-light carbonation. Lower bitterness than the 40 IBUs would suggest. I can’t believe I've never had this before now. A really good porter. Top 50 indeed.

UPDATED: MAR 28, 2023 Õlle on selline jook, et iga uus kord kui klaasi või pudeli suule tõstad, siis leiad midagi uut, sõltuvalt tuhandest-miljonist pisiasjast, mis hetke olukorda mõjutavad. Seega piirdun iga õlle juures selle tekstiga.
