Jun 24, 2008 Pretty nice porter. Molasses, very slight cocoa powder. This doesn’t seem to be the most complex of beers, but it’s not simplistic and it’s pretty darn tasty.

Jun 22, 2008 Bottle @ Balsam Cocktail Lounge Oslo, Norway. Pitch black and sirupy with thick foam. A bit weak on the aroma compared to the great taste. Otherwise a GREAT porter!

Jun 21, 2008 Thanks to a great bartender at Philadelphia’s Eulogy Tavern I had a bottle of this great porter. Pours a dark midnight brown and supports a thin but dense and long lasting light brown head with solid curtains of lacing. Roasted malt, bittersweet chocolate, and toffee in the nose with the same in the flavors. Some cocoa and vanilla along with enough hops to provide a nice bitter overtone as well. Smooth and velvety texture and a dry finish with a little peppery alcohol popping out at the end. If other brewers in Norway turn out this kind of quality, I might have to add their stamp to my passport.

Jun 14, 2008 Straightforward but solid porter. Poured black with average head that was not sustained. Nice lacing. Aroma of dark fruits and chocolate, although not too much aroma. Flavor of choclate, malit with a little hop dryness at the end. Not overly complex. Smooth full bodied taste. Reallly nice porter.

Jun 14, 2008 Bottled sample consumed with oakbluff. Near black in colour with medium carbonation. Aromas of dark chocolate, coffee, and red grapes. Very roasty and dry in the mouth, but it doesn’t sacrifice too much in terms of malt presence or body. Very drinkable for 7% ABV, with a long roasted malt finish. Very good indeed.
