Brewpub København Cole Porter

Black with thin beige head. Fruity nose with notes of acetone, coffee, chocolate and roasted malt. Fruity flavour with notes of hops, acid, vinegar, malt and chocolate.

Draught at the brewpub. Dark brown to black color, tan to brown head. Very burnt taste with some grain oat feeling. Soft burnt coffee taste, mellow mouthfeel. Burnt aftertaste. Low bitterness.

Draught at <a href=http://www.ratebeer.com/Place/denmark/copenhagen/brewpub-k%F8benhavn/4222.htm target=blank>BrewPub København in Copenhagen, Denmark. Near black in colour, long lasting tan coloured head, nice lacing. The aroma is of dark chocolate, roasted coffee beans and espresso, some licorice. The flavour is of deep roast, dark chocolate and coffee, very sweet. Dry mouthfeel, medium body, medium carbonation. Finishes long, sweet first then a coffee roast. Not to bad but again I feel this is lacking something.

Creamy dark beige lasting head over black body with faint reddish brown at the edges. Milky roasty coffeeish sweetish aroma with notes of chocolate and caramel pudding. Taste is acidic burnt toast with hop notes, a tad chalky and watery. Burnt aftertaste. Hmmm. Was this one off, or is it meant to be acidic? Thought it a bit one-dimensional, as well. Decent. (0.1l taster on tap.)

I do love porters and this one is well up to speed. Full, roasted liqorice like malt flavors, a nice subtle bitterness and hints of smoke. Quite dry too. This is a nice beer, pure and simple.

On tap. Pours black in colour with a small head. Roasted and malty with notes of hops, liquorice, butter and coffee.

Lots of coffee in here. And burned dark chocolate bitterness. Full bodied and quite dry. Good balance of malts and hops. Soft and more like a stout to me.

Draught. Small white head. Black body. Coffee aroma with hints of choccolate. Same with regard to flavor, smooth and easy to drink without much bitterness without being sweet. Interesting.
