Draught, half pint. @«Brew Coimbra 2019», Coimbra (Portugal). 13/09/2019. Dark cola colour with a medium tan head. Aroma is cola, soft toffee and plumd. Taste is also cola and toffee. Next one please!

Very dark brown and murky with thin head. Aroma and flavour have plenty of heavily roasted malts. There’s also a hint of coffee and liquorice. Fairly sweet.

Review based on the BJCP2015 guidelines (style 20A). Bottle 50cl - Batch P071217 (BBF 08/2018). AROMA: medium roasted malt aroma with slight notes of dark chocolate, nutiness. Slightly sweet malt background. APPEARANCE: very dark brown color and opaque. medium head of light brown color with medium retention. ruby highlights. TASTE: medium-high flavor of roasted malt (unsweetned coffee) and almost burnt. Slight dried nuts flavor. Medium bitterness with a roasted, slightly bitter and semi-dry to dry finish. PALATE: medium body with medium-low carbonation. Slight alcohol warmth. OVERALL: altough the label says "an hybrid english/american porter", this sample is clearly tilted towards the american version, rendering a decent example.
