fiulijn (6010), Como; Lausanne (CH); Malmö (SWE), Italy Nov 28, 2008 <i>Tasting at Papsoe</i><br />Black color. Very solid brew, strong body, good chocolate flavor (the aroma is simpler), sweet enough, touch of roasted malt, good hopping, strong bitterness and pleasant warming alcohol; powerful. The final has also some roasted nuts Very good. chicagodri (634), Chicago, Illinois, USA Nov 27, 2008 Once again, AleSmith produced some very solid stuff. I am not a huge fan of Porter beers, but this was very good. Nice aroma and flavor of coffee, chocolate, and some dark malt. Just a little bit of bitterness at the end. 10% hidden very well. Good stuff. yespr (7788), Copenhagen O, Denmark Nov 21, 2008 75 cL bottle, courtesy of Papsoe. Pours pitch black with a fully diminished off-white head. Mild spiced and roasted malty aroma.
