Draught from the Habitat. Dark pour, not much head. Thinnish consistency. HEavy on the licorice. Eh.

Lovely pepper porter, with a subtle but rising heat waiting on the edges of a smoky, chocolate-n-espresso center. Finishes dry, with the spiciness waiting until the third or fourth sip to make its presence known. About as easy-sippin' as a pepper beer can get. Nice.

Bottle @ home, bootled in 2011 according to stamp. Black color. Light brown head with short retention. Aroma's: sweetish, red fruit, berries, vergetal (from the pepper?). Retronasal it's fruity and vegetal, sweetish, raisins (oxidation?). Flavor is light moderate sweet, milk chocolatey, fruity. Peppery hear on the tongue, but this almost immediately disappears after swallowing. Body is a bit thinner than expected. Finishes with light peppery heat, light roasty bitterness.

Muy oscura, negra rojiza. Sin espuma. Mucho aroma,cacao y ahumada. Textura cremosa y suave. Potente sabor inicial que mezcla frutos secos y mucho chocolate. Pero pronto, alucinante. Pica!! Y mucho. Fuerte picor de cayena detras del paladar. Lo cual es sorprendente, y por su duracion, prolonga tambien el sabor de la cerveza. Especial. Merece probarse.

Old rating. Pours dark, with a slight red hue, and a small head. Aroma is smoked malts, with tobacco and coffee, as well as chocolate and liquorice. Full, creamy body, with soft carbonation. Flavour is sweet malts, with coffee, syrup and liquorice, as well as very present notes of strong spices and chili. Maybe too strong, and indeed lingering throughout the finish.

Sehr dunkelbraunes Bier mit geringer Schaumkrone. Geruch röstmalzig, Kaffee, etwas Pfeffer. Geschmack sehr röstmalzig, Kaffee, dann kommt die Schärfe des Pfeffers.

Botella de 33 cl en cimmeria en octubre de 2012. Color negro intenso. Bastante buena porter con 7.2 vol y un cuerpo medio fácil de beber. Sabores especiados y ligeramente picantes, también algo de tostados y de chocolates y cacao. Buena y para repetir sin problemas.

Malziger Antrunk mit hintergründigen Pfeffernoten, die sich zum Mittelteil deutlich steigern. Wenig herb, die Malzigkeit nimmt ab. Auch ansonsten nimmt die Intensität des Bieres deutlich ab, zum Ende ist außer dem Pfeffer nur noch eine leicht süße Malznote vorhanden. 9/9/8/8/7/8

Tap at Dexters. Opaque brown-black. Big, creamy beige head. Roasty chocolate and black pepper aroma. Smooth, milk chocolate tones dominate. Pretty good, rather mellow pepper tones. Interesting, decent Porter.
