On tap at brewery. Pours dark brown with small beige head. Aroma very strongly salted caramel and vanilla. Flavour packs a lot of well-sallted caramel and a bit of coffee. Mouthfeel is thick and syrupy, but quite smooth. Definitely toes the line in terms of heavy-handed dessert flavours, but very enjoyable beer.

47,3 cl can @ Timo A’s Go Nucks! tasting Aroma has mocha and English hops. Also toffee. Flavour has licorice, some English hops and ash. Too English for me. Where's the Himalayan and what about salted and caramel?

Okay black body, minimal head. Nice sweet barley on the nose. Flavour is sweet barley with roasted coffee hints. Mouthfeel yields some crispness but still wet overall. Missing the salt and overall and all a little bit middling.

Roast and caramel, with plenty of salt. Pours black with mocha head and lacing. Bittersweet finish. Good balance and pretty good all around. I even actually get the Himalayan salt rather than a regular salt vibe too, though at first I thought it would just be a gimmick. Tall Can.

16 oz can poured, gifted by Andrew. Thanks! Dark cola brown pour, thin patchy fizz head. Cocoa and caramel. Quite the candy bar of a brown/porter. Not screaming a salted attribute, but it's there. Overall, smooth, unique, and tasty. On board with this.

On tap. Pours black with very light head. Aromas of dark caramel, fudgey chocolate and slick roasted malts. Flavors follow same with additional sweet dark caramel and salt. Quite nice. A fun beer. I’ll have another.

On tap at 12 Kings, pours a deep dark brown with a small beige head. Aroma brings out caramel, light salt and some toasted malt. Flavour is quite rich, with lots of salt and caramel in quite a great cohesion, with a rich toasted malt backbone. Extremely caramel and moderately-to-highly salted. Rich, syrupy palate. This is quite nice.

Draft - Dark roast and some chocolate notes. Jet black with a rich beige head. Caramel, chocolate and a silky mouthfeel. Quite nice.
