Bottle, 8.0%. Fruity, peppery aroma, hint of vanilla and smoke. Black colour. Small dark brown head. The flavour starts off with a rather heavy barley bitterness and some hop bitterness as well. A little sweetness as well, but does not blance off the roasted and bitter notes. There seems to be a bit of smoke in the flavour as well, especially in the finish, and a weak aroma hop note also.

Courtesy of stobbe74. Half liter bottle pours mahogany with weak mocha head. The aroma has spicy black licorice, black strap molasses, chocolate cake and some toffee. Smells of yum. The taste is similar with lots of spicy black licorice mixing with black strap molasses, highly roasted malts, burnt malts and yummy dark chocolate. Wow. Good stuff that ends roasty, chocolaty and with plenty of spicy and near earthy hops.

500 ml bottle. Black body with a perfect tan head. Lovely aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, coffee, burnt sugar and hops. Flavor is smooth roasted malt, bitterhops, chocolate, coffee, liquorices and hint of alcohol. Full body. A very pleasant and well balanced porter with a really long aftertaste of roasted malt and liqurices.

Black beer with very brown foam. Almost looks like chocolate icecream. Smells roasty, malty and like iron. Taste is alcohol + iron.

Shared a bottle with DutchDrebus @ home. Big brown head that looks like ’chocomel’. Totally black opaque color. Smell irony, rusty, dark malts, chocolate, burned, roasted malts and coffee. Taste little alcoholic, coffee, dark malts. Very nice finish. Light oily texture. Fine carbo, good body.

Bottle shared at Klooster. Black pour with medium beige head. Aroma is licorice with chocolate. Flavour is dominated by licorice with some chocolate, coffee and roasted malt in the background. Oily thick mouthfeel and very little carbonation. Unusual but good porter

Small dark brown head. Opaque black body. Strong chocolatey earthy aroma with licorice and toffee notes. Harmonic and balanced. Sweet-dryish earthy chocolatey taste with cocoa notes. Fairly one-sided, but deepens later. Fullish body. Mild, soft mouthfeel. Dry-sweetish licorice chocolate and earth aftertaste with burnt buttery notes. Nice, but a bit flat and musty. Could use more hops. Typical de Molen, really. (0.5l bottle, wine monopoly.)

Ausgewogener Schokoladenantrunk mit dezenten Herbe- und starken Süßenoten. Aromatisch, dabei aber noch ausgewogen. Zum Ende milder, dennoch angenehm. Nettes, für 8% aber vergleichsweise mildes Porter, dessen Aromen konstant bleiben, als wären sie eingefroren. 12/11/10/9/7/10
