Nøgne Ø Porter

Brewed by Nøgne Ø
Style: Porter
Grimstad, Norway

Black with huge brown head. Sweet aroma with notes of chocolate, coffee and roasted malt. Same goes for the flavor that ends slightly bitter.

500 ml bottle. Pours dark brown/black with a medium sized diminishing tan head. The aroma is a little subdued but includes roasted malt and semi sweet chocolate. The flavor leans heavily to the roasted malt side, but also includes semi sweet chocolate, a touch of dark fruits, and a hint of licorice and vanilla. Maybe a touch thin, but very good otherwise. Could serve as a solid warmer weather dark beer.

What a taste. Beautifully smooth malty aroma with a hint of smoke, coffee, biscuits, raisins, salty liquorice, dark chocolate... Aftertaste is long, turns on the slightly sweet side. Another great beer from Norge.

500ml Bottle- Black in colour with a tan head. Liquorice and coffee featuring in the mildly alcoholic aroma. Aniseed and liquorice in the taste which is balanced with coffee and a very slight sour hint to the finish. Not bad at all.

yummy bottle at ethereal’s. Raspberry, medicinal herbs, seaweed, toasted malt, tar black, brown stable head, camphor, roasted barley, bitter, salty liquorice sweets, smooth, expertly balanced, yummy stuff.- this is honestly what my notes looked like! a bit of a mess but i did really like it :-)

Thanks to my secret santa for this. Pours black with a modest, long-lasting tan head. Aroma is distinctly "Nogne" with a sort of burnt caramel, mineral heavy water, leaves, roast, chocolate, raisins...pretty versatile aroma when warm. When cold, it’s kinda meh. Tastes more normal though, some roast astringency, dirt, minerals, coffee, finishing with a pleasant roasty aftertaste, a little lactose as the beer gets swallowed. Medium palate, easy drinking, fairly well carbonated. It’s alright.

Pours a nice black color with a tan head. Roasted aroma with coffee and some chocolate. Tastes of predominantly roasted malts with coffee and dark chocolate. Well-balanced, creamy with just a hint of carbonation.

Pours an opaque, black body with foamy, tan head. Aroma of cocoa, malts, yeast, bread, and some hops. Flavor initially is dark fruit, but then gives way to a strong dark roasted malt taste with cigar smoke. The dark fruit character tends to come out more as the beer warms. Medium-bodied, but comes off slightly watery. Smoke and coffee aftertaste.
