Nils Oscar Rökporter

Brewed by Nils Oscar
Style: Smoked
Nyköping, Sweden

Pours a nearly opaque dark mahogany with a thin, stringy-lacing beige head. Aroma of lightly sweet toasty caramel malt and musty earthy smokiness. Body starts with decent fullness and dry toasty malty sweetness with a good smoky balance and a drier roasted finish. A pretty good smoked porter.

Pours deep dark brown, slightly red through light. Head dissapears quickly. Aroma is smokey and malt. Taste is smokey bacon, lots of malt and a definete tobacco flavour, some cereal and a burnt malt finish. Pretty enjoyable, and the smokey flavour is not overpowering.

Bottle, 5.9%. Weak malty aroma, not very smoky. Almost black colour. Unstable brown head. The flavour is nicely malty, some liquorice. The flavour is not very smoky either, but it is well-balanced.

Builds up a brown head and a big aroma consisting of wood smoke and sweet raisins. The taste is coffie and slight chokolate and finishes off with bitterness and smoke flaver that never seems to die out. Extremely pleasant porter.
