A dark, sweet, full-bodied plum porter. Background notes of damson and blackcurrant are followed by the fruitiness of the plum in flavour and aroma.

Thin off white head on a dark plum coloured body. Jam & blackberry aroma. Medium bodied & smooth thinning out to a clean back. Blackcurrant, grainy, jam & blueberry tastes. It's ok.

Weird stuff going on. Plum is full on and slightly artificial. Some malty sweetness behind it. Quite weird. Plum clashes with a chocolately thing behind. Somewhat similar to the effect of the orange juice and toothpaste combination.

500ml bottle. Poured almost black in colour with a short-lived, frothy off-white head. The aroma is big blackcurrant. The flavour is over-moderate sweet, with a smooth, rich, jammy blackcurrant, chocolate, light liqourice palate. Medium bodied with average to soft carbonation.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 16.06.2022) im 2022-03 getrunken. Dieses Porter hat irgendwie eine künstliche Fruchtnote wo man eine Pflaume nicht wirklich erkennen kann, aber fast schon an ein einfaches Perfüm erinnert. Dazu kommen auch nicht klar definierbare Röstaromen und eine leichte Hopfennote.

Bottle. Nose is syrup, plum, jolly rancher sweets, cordial, plums. It's overpowering, synthetic and reminiscent of medicine. Taste is overpowering plum, jam, malt with a slight herbal hop finish. It's a beer with some plum flavouring tipped in giving a pretty simple flavour profile. Lazy and unpleasant.

Pours a deep, dark brown, near black, with a short-lived frothy tan head and a sweet plum pudding aroma. A little thin, lightly carbonated, with a slightly tart plum flavour, some roasted malt lurking underneath and sweet plums in the finish
