This porter is inspired by the love for roasted malts. It balances somewhere inbetween a porter and a stout with a twist from the Belgian yeast. This beer goes great with grilled pumpkin, chicken or lamb, or dishes that include avocado, figs or dark fruits.

Bottle from Drankenhandel Leiden. Aroma is roasted malt with coffee, tobacco, some chocolate and caramel, light liquorice. Not that Belgian actually. Flavour is moderate to medium sweet and bitter. Body is medium. Nice bittersweet Porter, roast and coffee at the front. Good.

Sampled from 0.33 l bottle, best before October 2019. Dark, reddish brown to black with a beige head. Sweetish-malty, gently roasty aroma of dark chocolate, coffee and some hazelnut. Gently sweet, malty, quite roasty-bitter taste of dark chocolate, coffee, hazelnut and a touch of licorice root, followed by a medium long, gently roasty-bitter, minimally yeasty-spicy finish. Medium to full body, smooth and gently creamy mouthfeel, average carbonation. Nice!

Dezent säuerlich malziger Beginn, trocken, moderat röstig. Fichtennadeln, die Malzintensität bleibt hinter den Erwartungen zurück, dennoch insgesamt harmonisch. Moderat herb, minimal bitter, langer trocken kakaoartiger Abgang. 10/9/10/10/7/10

Enjoyed at home. Bottle just about to expire (10/2019). Pours a black colour and a light brown head with a small layer retention. Aroma's: sweetish, cocoa powder, roasted malts, a hint of red fruit. Retronasal there's roasted malts, coffee and sweet chocolate. Flavour is light moderate sweet with light roasted bitterness. Body is a bit thin. Finishes with roast, a bit dry, moderate bitter. Quite nice.

Fles gedeelt door Inoven, met dank aan Benzai. Het is een donkerbruin helder bier. Het heeft een aroma van koffie en bessen. De smaak is salmiak achtig en wat zoet. De nasmaak is wat pittig.
