Cask@HBF2018. Black colour, mediumsized beigeish brown head. Aroma is smoked, some liquorice, mild tobacco, some ripe fruits, plum, figs, raisins. Flavour has the same elements in a really smooth balance. Good sipper, and probably a really good dessert beer.

On tap at Oluthuone Kaisla, Helsinki. Looks pitch black with a small, beige head. Roasty aroma with notes of dark fruits, licorice, wood and hints of coffee. Medium sweet, full flavour and some acidic notes. Medium to full body with a fairly smooth mouthfeel. Nice winter warmer. --- Beer merged from original tick of Victory Imperial Porter on 17 Dec 2017 at 18:07 - Score: 7

Tap at Kitty's, Helsinki. Color is almost black with very small slightly brownish head. Aromas and flavors: Dryness, coffee and roasted malts. Very nice coffee porter for us coffee lovers. Pretty good drinkability. Dark chocolate after warming. Best so far from this brewery? Drinkability quite good.

Half pint, draught at Ølhus Stockholm. Moderate tan-coloured head to a deep black body. Dotted spots on the glass. Promising roasted dark malty nose with coffee notes. Well blended taste of chocolate, espresso coffee and dark bread. Smoothly roasted, lingering bittersweet finish. Fine depth. Lovely winter warmer. (Helsinki 29.11.2017).
