Stallhagen X-mas Porter

Dark reddish colour. Low carbonation. Some hints of cinnamon in the nose. Not a very special beer.

(Draught at St. Urho’s Pub on 2008-02-16) Black with some redness. Sweet spicy nose. Spices in taste that contains also roasted malts, Contained more taste than I expected.

Draught@St. Urho’s, Helsinki
Almost opaque, ruby red color, mostly vanishing head. Coffee beans in the nose. Coffee, licorice and some Jägermeister in the flavor, also some Christmas spices (cinnamon, clove). Flavor is a bit too simple for winter porter. Some similarities to late Stadin Winter Stout.

colour:dark Flavor: less spicy as I expected, hobs, easily drinkable too easy for my taste

Draught (St. Urho’s, Helsinki, Porter and Stout Days 2008)
Jet black, thin tight head. Spicy gingery aroma. Full mashy husky malt taste, burnt at first too. A bit of a mushy taste, slightly raw and even vegetably in places. A bit flat and dull.
