Very dark brown, almost black with a rich dense light brown head. Roasted coffee, dark chocolate, hops, smoke and dried plums in aroma. Flavour of coffee, minerals and smoke with small notes of tar, hops and salt. Powerfull finish of black coffee, smoke, dark plums and peppry alcohol.

Nøgne Ø has made the best porter I have tried in a long time. Black in color. Aroma is full of roasted malt. Flavor is full with light chocolate and coffee and more malt. Many breweries would call this their stout.

Bottle. Rich brown beer with red tinges and a tan head. Big roasty aroma with coffee. Chocolate/roast flavor with no hrashness and backing hops. Lingering sweet chocolate malt. Medium body. Like most of their beers I’ve tried, it’s well balanced.

Pours a deep black color with brown highlights and a thick, frothy, beige head. Very good aroma and flavor of coacoa, toasted bread and roasted malt with a bitter finish. The body is light with a slightly liquorous texture and gentle carbonation. Porter might not be one of the most exciting styles for me, but when it’s well done like this one it’s always a pleasure to drink.

[2nd Low Countries RateBeer meeting] Aroma of roasted coffee malts with some black currant fruitiness. Black coloured with a medium, brown head. Taste is quite smooth. Roasted coffee malt, some fruit and sweetness. Slightly dry. Well balanced taste. Very nice.

Sample at the Hopsnobbery Collective Porter tasting on 12/4/08: This brew is a solid brownish-black color with a medium thin and rocky light brown head that dissipates steadily. Stringy lacing on the glass. Aroma of smoked malt and dark chocolate plus a touch of coffee. Medium, round body with flavors of roasted malt, bittersweet chocolate and raisins. Light smoky character throughout. The finish is soft and roasty with a mocha aftertaste. Pretty good all around.

Black body topped by a long-lasting medium tan head. Dark cookie malts, dates and some black liquorice are the main flavours. Far from an intense beer it is rather soft overall. The body is somewhat creamy although the mouthfeel is surprisingly pretty dry. Gentle medium carbonation. Nice by-the-number porter that only stands out because of a dryer than average mouthfeel. Very little hops presence. The only thing that may leave a bitter after-taste here is paying the high price-tag.
