473 ml can from Systembolaget. Pitch black with a dense lightly tanned head. Sweet aroma with caramel malts, chocolate, red berries, ash, roasted notes. Rather hoppy. Taste is bitter roasted. Medium bodied. Lasting drying roasted finish with lots of dark malts. Excellent for the abv.

Can from Systembaolget. An interesting and well bodied porter for the abv. I would be curious to try it again out of a glass.

473ml can. Jet black colour with average to huge, thick, creamy, moderately lasting and lacing, beige to tan head. Roasty, chocolately, dark malty and slightly grassy, hoppy aroma, notes of dark chocolate, some coffee, burnt coffee, toffee, whiffs of cocoa, charcoal, almost an ashy smoky touch. Taste is roasty, chocolately, dark malty, notes of dark chocolate, some coffee, burnt coffee, subtle sweetness with hints of toffee, a touch of charcoal. Creamy texture, smooth and super-soft palate, fine and soft carbonation. Quite rich and intense, nevertheless highly drinkable - very good.
