Has oozy brown foam with a very dark brown body. Smells of good coffee and barley though sweet and simplistic. Flavour is smokey barley yet sweet, baker's chocolate, coffee notes. Mouthfeel is full and satisfying, no lingering alcohol. A nice porter, well made, straight ahead.

47,3 cl can @ Timo A’s Go Nucks! tasting Aroma is somewhat musty with licorice, molasses and ripe berries. Also tobacco. Flavour has tart-ish berries with spices, tart-ish raspberries, finishing with tobacco and ash. Unusual and interesting, not that drinkable though. Not sure in which occasion I'd use this.

Can, Legacy. Dark brown, with medium head. The aroma is mostly nutty, maybe a touch of vanilla. Soft body, nice chocolate, touch of alcohol. The milk chocolate character is really nice, the body good, moderate bitterness. Everything comes together as a really beautiful sweet strong stout.

Black with large brown head. Lean, smooth, elegant; dark chocolate, touch of ashes and salt, roasted nuts. Very good.

Black colour with small brown head. The aroma is mild, but the flavour is stronger, good blend of roasted malt and dark chocolate; I like sweeter versions, but at least it's not too dry and it's smooth; grows with roasted nuts and gentle booze, touch of treacle in the finish.
I'm liking it, no off putting traits as others found recently at Weathered.

Bottle at Weathered, pours black with a small tan head. Aroma is very harsh, with lots of paint thinner, harsh barrels, light vanilla and medium toasted malt. Flavour is more tempered, with medium roast, alcohol, and oats. More tasteful than the nose suggests, but still a bit chaotic. Decent.
