tarjei (839), Bryne, Norway May 9, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Almost black color, creamy brown head. Aroma is roasted malt. Flavor is roasted malt, chocolate. Nice bitterness. Miksu (1074), Jyväskylä, Finland Apr 26, 2008 0.5 l bottle. Black color with thick creamy head. Roasty aroma with coffee and charcoal. Fairly drying roastiness in the flavor with charcoal, coffee and dark fruits. More malty backbone would make this better, now this is very straighforwardly roasty. Jukkabro (2233), Tampere, Finland Apr 20, 2008 Near black colored with brown hints, little beige head. Biting aroma with hops and licorice, surprisingly hopped porter. Medium bodied. Flavor starts with fine roastiness and chocolate, aftertaste lasts still with hops. Weird, but good porter. Bragesnak (752), Aarhus, Denmark Apr 20, 2008 From Superbrugsen, Aarhus, DK
Bottled
Smooth palate with coffee and chocolate but still too dry from the roasted barley oh6gdx (4759), Vaasa, Finland Apr 18, 2008 Bottled. Deep amber colour, mediumsized brown creamy head, that leaves a bit of lace. Aroma is roasted malts, vanilla and some coffee. Flavour is quite sour, roasted malts, coffee vanilla and some notes of wood. Quite ok.
