A blend of a mature and young ale creates a porter of traditional character that’s dark cherry in colour and complex in taste. Aromas of liquorice, rum, raisin and chocolate with hints of coffee are in abundance in this full-bodied, warming ale.

Bevuta in bottiglia (forma particolare). Buona porter. Forse manca un po' di corpo. Mi aspettavo di meglio.

Tap at FOB, Rimini, Italy. Pours black with very fine brown foam. Aroma is coffee, licorice, molasses. Body is kind of on the thin side, with limited carbonation. Taste is medium sweet, with moderate bitterness/roastiness. Final is average.

Coffee, licorice and brown sugar in both aroma and flavor. Sweetish, medium bodied. Bitter walnut aftertaste. Tasty, but the licorice character is somewhat exaggerated. Nevertheless a fine beer.

Bottle @Birrifugio Trastevere (Rome). Bruna con riflessi miele di castagno, schiuma beige media, discretamente persistente. Al naso note di caffè, liquirizia, cacao in polvere. In bocca è delicata ed equilibratissima, attacco dolce con amaro caffettoso e freschezza luppolata, anche a leggera sapidità. Corpo leggero, carbonazione medio-leggera. Splendida, delicata, garbata, gentile.
