With clear notes of espresso, dark chocolate and a hint of authentic Icelandic coffee, this Porter is dark and rich, offering a medium body that is robust, yet smooth on the palate and easy to drink. There’s no need to be afraid of the dark anymore.

Shared bottle at Cardinal, Stavanger. Pours black with dense beige head. Aroma of coffee, dark bread, some fruity notes. Tastes slightly sweet with roasted bitterness. Medium bodied, dry mouthfeel, slightly roasted finish.

The hint of espresso is the highlight of the beer, but the beer doesn’t have a great full bodied mouthfeel that drags it down. Bottle from konsum dresden. (3.4 march 2020) It is a clean, well made light porter that is mildly roasted. It is better than 3.4, just not super exciting. But very drinkable. Craftbiershop online

Il gusto al naso viene attratto da caffè e da affumicato. L'olfatto viene stimolato in maniera molto elevata e il modo in cui permane è apprezzabile. Il cappello di schiuma color marrone castagno resiste abbastanza. Le bollicine sono grandi. Il colore è scuro impenetrabile. Il corpo è strutturato. Il dolce è pesante. L'amaro è contenuto e c'è anche una punta di umami. La forza gustativa è elevata. La continuità gustativa è buona. Il gusto è piacevole. Le sensazioni boccali finali risultano di birra beverina. Il retrogusto è di decente intensità. Sulla lingua si fermano sentori di miele, cioccolato, caffè, frutta secca, pane tostato e agrumi.

33 cl bottle purchased at Nord restaurant at the Keflavik Airport in Keflavik, Iceland. The pour is opaque brown black with a well formed one inch khaki head. The aroma is clean roast coffee, rich malt, along with a bit of cocoa sweet. The taste is the coffee, roast, malt and cocoa sweetness in perfect balance. The palate is medium bodied, active carbonation and a clean, dry roast and mineral finish. Really nice porter.
