Draft at Borefts beer festival. Crude oil like pour with a thin brown head. This beer is everything you expect from a quality porter and then some more. It has that lovely roasted malt aroma with loads of chocolate and liqourice in the flavour coupled with oak and a hint of cognac, which thankfully wasn’t dominant. A gorgeous, well rounded and very drinkable beer.

Bottle at Akkurat. Opaque black liquid with minimal tan head. Aroma of licorice, cognac, oak, chocolate, tobacco (snus), biscuit and some light leather. Nicely complex. Taste is light to medium sweet and light to medium bitter with notes of chocolate, licorice, biscuit and cognac. Medium to full bodied with low to medium carbonation and very velvety liquid. Delicious.

On tap at HaandFestival 2012. A good looking beer, black, and topped by a small, firm, tan head. Booze, roasted malts, licorice, chocolate notes and some prunes on the palate. It’s full-bodied, warming and soft on the palate, with flavors of licorice, roasted malts, booze, bitterness and some faint burnt notes. A little citrus peel hint as well. Lasting finish with roasted malts and a good bitterness. Pure, lasting joy. 120504

Big thanks to nbutler11 for this. I was pretty sure I’d never see a bottle of this beer. It pours deep mahogany with tan head and leaving behind some nice staining of the glassware. The aroma is nice with dark roasted malts, spicy oak, molasses, chocolate brownie and some dark roasted coffee. The taste is rich with slivers of spicy oak bathing in sweet molasses and rimmed with chocolate fudge brownie and smooth Cognac like booziness. It ends, or does it ever end as it lingers and lingers, with crusty molasses, chocolate and spicy oak. Yummers!
