On tap @ BPBW after. Pours black oily with thick beige head. Nose is pretty sweet, grainy, fruity a bit boozy and and roasty, but there’s no distinct coffee aroma. The taste is pretty much the same, with a much heavier body than one would expect. Decent beer, but not really a coffee porter.

On tap at le cheval blanc.
Jet black pour, mocha head. Huge roasty aroma, big notes of coffee and cocoa. Viscous mouthfeel, and a very dry bitter finish with lingering notes of espresso. Solid porter, but really bordring on a stout.

Aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee. Flavour is roasty, coffee, with a bitter finish. Body is a bit light. Not standout in any way, simply a very quaffable Porter that I wouldn’t mind drinking again.

Bottle from Beer52. Pours a dark brown with big beige slightly lumpy head. Solid porter aroma of roast, coffee, some berries. Picking up bready notes also. Taste starts roast and coffee then a tangy fruitiness comes in, finishing with brown sugar and burnt bits. Somewhat bitter but its balanced. Just about medium bodied, modest carbonation, easy to drink. I like it.
