Apr 28, 2009 Bottled. A pitch black beer with a lazing brown beer. The aroma is sweet with notes of roasted malt and wood. The flavor is sweet with notes of roasted malt, chocolate, and some wood, leading to a dry and lightly bitter finish. Nice. Thanks Søren for sharing.

Apr 19, 2009 Very dark brown with some ruby highlights. Nice one finger tan head. Modest amount of lacings. Mild roast malt aroma. Taste is dark chocolate malt with a touch of espresso. Just enough earthy hop bitterness to balance the flavors. Finish is moderately bitter. Tasty porter but a bit subdued overall. Very easy drinker.

Apr 1, 2009 Bomber. Pours a quite dark purplish brown with large sticky beige head. The aroma is pipe tobacco, caramel, molasses, marshmellows, and just a touch of ash. The flavor is sweet with caramel, prune, and milk chocolate. There are some notes of char and wood in there, but they are behind the sweeter tones. A bit of a spicy and earthy hop tinge comes out toward the finish, just enough to keep the sweetness at bay. The aftertaste is ash and chocolate, and fades slowly. The mouthfeel is slick and goes down the throat very, very smoothly. Very good beer. I could down a few of these.

Mar 31, 2009 Bomber. Pours black with a dense one-finger latte-colored head. Holding the beer to a strong light reveals a ruby red interior. Enticing aromas of chocolate, coffee, dark roasted malt and light smoke. The taste is even better - lots of semi-sweet chocolate, dark roasted coffee and a hint of oak. A pleasant bitterness from the generous quantity of hops lingers on the tongue and balances the beer nicely. The body is moderately thick and smooth, with no detectable carbonation. This is a terrific porter - I enjoyed it from start to finish.
