Nov 15, 2006 22 oz bottle thanks to janka. I didn’t find much wrong with this porter. Lots of creamy tan head on this dark dark pour. Chocolate and coffee aromas. Flavors were similar with some burnt malt flavor and a decent hoppy finish. Very tasty.

Jan 26, 2009 Can’t see through this beer, or it’s beige head. Light roasted malts, some chocolate, berries, nuts, and molasses. Very nice. Thick, creamy, and silky smooth. Chocolate, toasted malts, faint dark fruits, some berries, molasses, and nutty. Finishes with little dryness and some bittersweet chocolate. This is one smooth, tasty, damn fine porter. Heavy, but not like many "stouts" that masquerade as porters. I should have bought three more... (Rating #800)

Jul 7, 2007 Nice opaque black color with medium brown, small head and little lacing. Aroma is big, lots of fruit and malt. Flavor is fantastic. Very creamy and malty with some fruit notes as soon as it hits my tongue. nice cocoa finish. Definitely one of the top porters.

Oct 19, 2007 Pours deep black with a small off white head. Aroma starts off with a huge espresso blast followed by chocolate malt and banana. Taste is silky smooth with a nice mouthful of coffee and chocolate malt. The carbonation is similar to soda when you roll it around in your mouth. Nice dry coffee like aftertaste. This is just a delicious beer and something that is a must try.

Apr 28, 2007 Updated: Nov 15, 2007Bottle 500 ml, batch # ??? (no dates or batchnumber on this bottle). Deep brown, almost black, with redtones in strong light. Coffe, roasted/burnt malt, liqourice, lovely fruity sweetness and vanilla - all balanced with nice hops. Dry, bitter finish. Another winner from Nøgne Ø!

Oct 31, 2008 Poured from 550ml bottle into dimpled mug. Opaque brown in color with 1 finger creamy head. Aromas of dark malt, chocolate and coffee. Tastes of roasted malt,semi-sweet chocolate, and coffee. Excellent balance on the malt and hops. This a traditional porter at it’s finest. Unfortunately, at $8.99 per bottle it will have to be an occasional treat.
