J'ai tout de même du mal à comprendre pourquoi mettre de l'acidité dans un Porter. Est-ce que j'irai mettre du jus de citron dans mon café? Non, le jus de citron le massacrerait. Ici The Flying Dutchman nous massacre donc un Porter avec du jus de cassis. Ils auraient d'ailleurs pu s'abstenir de mettre en complément des fèves de cacao, car de toute façon on le ressent à peine. En verre, c'est un brun foncé qui nous attend, sans mousse. Au nez, ce n'est pourtant pas si déséquilibré que cela et les arômes de chocolat et de café arrivent à exister en complément du cassis. L'ensemble reste toutefois simple. En bouche, les arômes de café et chocolat sont complètement anéantis, ou quasiment par l'acidité et les arômes de cassis. L'alcool, à 6 % n'arrive pas non plus à décoller, dissout dans l'acidité. L'ensemble est plat. Longueur et corpulence sont très moyenne également. Rien d'un prince...
