Koff Porter is a top fermented dark, almost black, unfiltered beer, with a malty roasted aroma. Four different malts are used for this brew: Pilsner, Münchener, coloured and brown malt. These make up the beer’s characteristic aromas: roastedness, chocolate, coffee and liquorice. Koff Porter is generously hopped with Saazer and bittering hops.

Bottle. Pours with an ultra deep brown body, and a huge, creamy brown head Tons of lace, everywhere.. Earth, raisins, dark fruit, caramel, chocolate and toasted almonds. Taste is a bit smokey, with tobacco, nuts, milk chocolate. chocolate and a distinct metallic flavor. Earthy. Finishes more than slightly lactic. Medium to thin mouthfeel, light bubbles. Starting to get an understanding for the style. The American versions are far different than their Scandinavian counterparts.

Draught, on 25th July 2009, at Ginger Man NYC. Solid, impenetrably black with earthy brown head giving "swiss cheese patterning" in its lacing. Looks very handsome in the glass. Creamy lacticity and some citrus notes are met simultaneously by smoky, roasted malts which combine in a pungent kick. This is followed by a short, sharp finish containing sour and bitter notes all delivered on a smooth, but not untextured, mouthfeel. Very rewarding porter!

Bottle. Poured black with thick beige head. Much lacing. Powerful aroma of walnuts, caramel and melt. Flavour is complex blend of walnuts, caramel, roast malt and a hoppish edge. Rich lasting finish. Good with the old songs.

Full pint pour, draft at Birreria Paradiso in DC. Opaque black-brown with a tan orange head. Sweet and malty, sort of middle of the road. Sugary with touch of roastiness, it’s not unlike other standard Baltic Porters.

Bottle. Black. Small beige head. Smells choclate. Tastes chocolate and port with small tartness in the aftertaste. I think this beer has a little too much carbonation.
