Medium sweet flavour, more baking cocoa, a bit of ashy roast, earth. Medium bodied with fine carbonation. Well balanced finish, more toasted malts, brownies, a little ash and baking cocoa. Quite nice.

Had this before, rated it, but the rating disappeared. That was Texas Ranger. This is an alias - Chipotle Porter. Is this correct? E-mail me the correction at dobrotich@gmail.com. Thanks. 0.33 l bottle shared with Višnja 666. Very dark brown to black. Medium diminishing brown head. Very roasty. Spices. Licorice, dried fruits. Burnt. Very dry, nice spicy character, hot. Some charred wood. Very thick, full body, moderate carbonation, spicy finish. It's very nice, but I liked it better the first time.

From the tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours black with fine brown foam. Aroma is dark chocolate, some coffee, spicy, though not intense. Body is dense, with some stickiness and limited carbonation. Taste has a tid of sweetness, but that is immediately overcharged by an intense spiciness from the chipotle peppers. The latter dominates the long finish as well.

Casi negra de abundante y bonita espuma oscura que dura bastante. Aroma bastante especiado. Malteada en boca, muy sabrosa, con base de buena porter con sabores a chocolate y notas de café, buen cuerpo y textura oleosa. Pero a medida que avanza el trago en el paladar se percibe claramente el golpe especiado y ligeramente picante que aporta el chipotle, haciéndola especial y muy conseguida. No es para tomar a diario, pero es indudablmente buena y sorprendente.

Vom Fass Stone Brewing Berlin 2016-11 getrunken. Dieses Porter wird mit Chipotle Chilischoten gebraut. Gekühlt ist der Chili kaum spürbar, doch wird das sehr gut balacierte Porter wärmer - wärmt der Chili im Abgang schön den Gaumen an. Klasse Bier mit einen sanften Kick!
