* Old rating, best before 20/02/12. Toll malzig-intensives Bier. Frisch. tief, Schokolade. Röstmalz, trocken und dennoch süffig. Intensiv, dunkel, fast dickflüssig. Ein Traum!

Keg at the Rake, 19/06/15. Murky chestnut brown with moderate off white spotting @not a looker. Nose is toffee, light cocoa, roast malt, spice, dark fruit rinds. Taste comprises chocolate, light must, charr, fruit cake, toffee. Medium bodied, fine carbonation, semi drying close. Decent enough porter, let down by its appearance more than anything.

Keg at the Rake. It pours murky dirty brown with a tiny white head. The nose is salted caramel, earth, leather, coffee, cocoa, earthy roast and smoke. The taste is dry, earthy roast, coffee, toasty, dirt, peppery spice and charred stuff with a pretty dry, charry finish. Medium body and fine, prickly carbonation. Decent porter, but not a looker.

Murky dark brown, stable beige froth. Roasted aroma with chocolate. Similar flavour, dry bitterness with a little sweetness too. Nice.

330ml bottle from Saveur-Biere.fr. Pours a deep brown with beige head. Decent balanced porter flavour with chocolate, caramel and roasted flavours in absolute harmony.
