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.

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.

Pours dark brown, almost pitch black, topped with a tiny beige head, not so lasting. Gentler malty nose, some chocolate and a tad roasty. Medium bitterness with medium rossty feel. Medium aftertaste, a bit roasty. Medium lighter body. Ok drinkable.
