Bottle - Chocolate and roast malts. Jet black with a dark brown but substantial head. Bittersweet chocolate, vanilla and some slight oak and a touch of alcohol heat at the finish. Full bodied and delicious.

650ml bottle, pours black with an amber tinge with a small beige head. Aroma of sweetened malts, light caramel malts, and a little cocoa. Flavour brings out caramel, sweet malts, a little cocoa, and some dry notes. Norma's sweet as I expected, but it is very malt-heavy. Nice stuff.

Dark brown color, light brown head. Dark bitter chocolate with a hint of sake yeast and tons of dark fruit. Very intense. Med mouth, tons of dark fruit, brownies, intense. A bit boozy. Moderate bitterness hits the back of the mouth. Lingering bitter.

bottle thanks to my kick-ass trading partner to the North, Savvy1982, pours thick black, tall dark tan head. Aroma is pine hops, roasted malt and thin chocolate notes. The oak is present as well. Strong vanilla and burnt caramel flavors with a little booze and earthy wood and hop elements. Really nice porter.

A deep dark poter with a thick lacing moka head. Nice roasted malts and chocolate aroma, with molasses, and dark fruits. In mouth, a nice soothing and silky chocolate with discreet roasted character, woody, bitter, and coffee grounds. Rich and complex porter. Bottle from Piscator32, thanks Kris.

Bottle courtesy of Oakbluff: Poured a pitch-black color porter with a big foamy head with good retention and some lacing. Aroma of dry and roasted malt notes with some distinct notes of black chocolate. Taste is a mix between some quality black chocolate and some dry roasted and somewhat bitter malt notes. Full body with some good carbonation and no apparent alcohol. Very well done for the style and not too extreme – I could drink more then one in a session.
