Dugges Poseidon Porter

Brewed by Dugges Ale & Porterbryggeri
Style: Porter
Mölndal, Sweden

At the brewery. A dark brown beer with a red shine under a thick brown head. The aroma is sweet with loads of chocolate as well as hints of acidity from the very hard roasted malt. The flavor is sweet and starting off with strong notes of chocolate, but then the roasted malt gains in strength combined with a hint of acidity from the hard roasted malt, to give it a rather dry finish that last for a long time. The mouthfeel is very smooth.

(On tap) Clear, very dark - almost opaque - orangey brown with a tall, handsome, beige head with good retention and leaving laces. Soft aroma of roasted malt. Rather light body with sweetish, roasted malty notes - but also both coffee and chocolate. A discreet malt bitterness. "Our summer Porter", the brewer explained. 250806

Draught at Akkurat, Stockholm. Very dark brown, brief head. Aroma of grapefruit and licorice. Dry with clean, hard mouthfeel. Very roasty with notes of metal and blood. Short finish with medium bitterness. Lovely hoppiness, but the malt profile is it’s drawback.

Draught at SBWF 06. Mild fruit aroma with a hint of spicy aroma hops. Almost black colour. Fruity flavour, with some maltiness later. Mild but good.

Draught from tank. Black colour (or very dark ruby red), big brownish head. Aroma is strong roast and smoked malts. Also hints of black coffee. Flavour is old strong black coffee along with roasted malts. Aftertaste is coffee and roast. Very welldone beer. Full of stuff, even though the ABV is quite low.

Black color; creamy head. The aroma is not only roasty, but also breadish. The mouthfeel is medium-thin and dry, with a lean roasted malt flavor. Well, you know it, not my kind…

Dark color with red shades, strong chocolatey aroma. Good body strength, strong flavor, mixing caramel, dark chocolate and some roasted malt, a bit of sweetness and the bitterness is just above the average. Chocolate drink. As usual a good beer from Dugges.
