Dark brown color. The aroma is mildly bready, the body is rather thin, it has some bread and some caramel flavor, and a bit nutty in the final.
Not a bad beer, also not a Porter, rather a Brown Ale.

330ml bottle. Pours a clear brown with red hue and a small, short lived, beige head that leaves spotty lacing. Sweet aroma of roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee and a hint of caramel. Sweet flavour of caramel malt, light roast, dark chocolate and bread with a dry, ashy, bitter coffee finish. Light to medium body with an oily texture and soft carbonation.

Medium brown, with a thin head. Light chocolatey nose. Sweet, more on the floral side, light bitterness, not finding much malt complexity.

Draft - Toast and roast with some cocoa. Jet black with a decent white head. Roasty with some toast. Meh.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown with a small off-white head. Aroma is very restrained and nonexistent. Flavour is along the same lines, with toasted bready and not much else. Dry finish. Pretty uninspired even for the style. Weak stuff.
