Ungstrup (11031), Frederiksberg, Denmark May 15, 2003 A black beer with no head. The aroma is of fruit and brewmash. The flavor is slightly sour, slightly smoked, and pretty sweet. Not my style of porter. omhper (10393), Stockholm, Sweden May 9, 2007 Bottled at Monk’s Café, Stockholm. Clack, beige head. Roasty coffee aroma. Very dry and crisp with evident flavour of freshly ground coffe that lingers all the way through to the finish. A very drinkable, uncomplicated one-flavour beer. Papsoe (9980), Frederiksberg, Denmark Jan 3, 2007 (Bottle 50 cl) Pours a clear, reddish mahogany with a creamy, beige head leaving laces. Aroma is almost pure chocolate. Medium body with distinct, hard roasted malty accents and then also flavours of bitter, dark chocolate. The malt does leave some bitterness. 030107 Oakes (6819), Miami Beach, Florida, USA Jan 5, 2002 Very dark brown ale with dry, toast-like flavours and a touch of wineyness in the finish. Fishman is right - there are so many better English porters on the export market (Fuller’s, Sam Smith’s, Salopian Entire Butt) joergen (6240), Frederiksberg, Denmark Nov 29, 2005 Rating #1666.
