Bad color. Messed up sour malty with chocolate and celery. The remake was worse than the original

Molasses, burnt raisin, dark chocolate, very rich and tempting nose. The body falls apart, is unbalanced and slightly sour. So much promise that fails to deliver.

On tap at Eni-Bru. Ore no Kuro 2014 - black of mine porter - a hoppy porter brewed by the ex-manager of 2nd Vine who is now at Johana Beer. I am hoping that means they will improve. 6.5% a cola brown pour with a wisp of a light beige head. A bit of a medicinal seeming fruity hop nose with savoury chocolate malts. Medium bodied with a slightly rough mouthfeel. The taste isn’t as complex as the nose roasty coffee & chocolate plus medicinal fruity hops with a slightly more bitter finish than the wind valley Kuro black IPA. Not bad, better than I expected.

Draught at the Osaka Minami International Beer Festa, 2011. Thin black, almost no head. Aroma of strange malts, some hops, a bit of roast. Thin, watery flavor, weak malt, harsh, some syrup. Really amateurish and terrible.
