No other Norwegian beer has won more international prizes than our Porter. We always include it in our tastings and it has turned many a ”lager lover” on to craft beer. It has a silky smooth mouthfeel with hints of coffee and chocholate. Good with classic stews, but mindblowing with dark chocolate!

Bottle @ home. Deep black appearance with a dark brown head. Roasty chocolate, black licorice, anise, char nose. Strong charred, tar, asphalt, anise, burnt chocolate flavor. Charred, burnt, chocolate, licorice aftertaste. I can’t explain why but I really dislike Scandinavian Porters and Stouts.

Draught at Rover 2011-06-10 Göteborg AR: caramel fudge + roasted malt, odd but very nice combo, the aroma is a bit sugary sticky (which is possitive - in this case) AP: amber with reddish tone, frothy beige head F: roasted malt, butter fudge, thinn & dry finish

On draft at Henrik Øl og Vinstove, Bergen. Pours dark brown with light tan head. Aroma is chocolate, malt and light coffee. Flavour is mellow and matches aroma with a good bitterness. (Rated offline on 2011/04/13)

Herb-schokoladiger Antrunk, dessen Malz aber schnell nachlässt. Im Mittelteil eher getreidig, trocken, die Intensität ist gering, das Bier langweilig. Im Abgang zusätzlich ein wenig säuerlich. Naja... 12/8/7/7/10/7
