Brewpub København Cole Porter

50 cl bottle, via papsoe. Pours a dark brown body with a small tight bubbled light brown head. Nice lacing remained. The nose is pretty unique, there’s some tobacco, licorice, and maybe a touch of oxidation that accompanies the usual characters of roast and coffee. The flavor is much thinner than I’d like, there’s a watery quality to it that carries thru in all aspects. Fairly dry, with lots of roasted malt and to a lesser extent chocolate up front. Fades to a coffee and light licorice laced finish. The finish is rather short, reinforcing the watery quality of it. Overall, this was certainly drinkable, but this could us to be a little more beefed up.

On tap at the brewpub. Almost black color, creamy brown head. Aroma is roasted malt. Flavor is roasted malt, chocolate. Nice bitterness.

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.

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.

From Superbrugsen, Aarhus, DK Bottled Smooth palate with coffee and chocolate but still too dry from the roasted barley

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.

(Bottled) Very dark brown with a medium, creamy-lacy head. Slight milky sourness in the aroma with sweetish malt and roastiness. Nicely roasty, milky-sour, not burned flavor with mild bitterness, and a dry finish. Almost medium body with smooth carbonation. A balanced and enjoyable stout with pleasantly low ABV.

Draught at the Brewpub, Copenhagen. Pours out in hazy dark brown colour with a low creamy off-white foam. Black coffee, salty licorice, tar and Anjou pears in the aroma. Medium-bodied with notes of black coffee, tar, mild smoke, roasted nuts and licorice with hints of black chocolate and red apples. Long medium bitter finish of black coffee and tar. Nice Porter!
