Bottle. Dark brown body with a moderate sized, dense beige head. Aroma has roasted dark malt, caramel and quite much chocolate. Flavor is medium sweet, roasted dark malt, chocolate, some caramel, a bit nutty and some kind of dry bitterness. A bit thin bodied and pleasant aftertaste in the same direction as the rest, perhaps a bit dryer than the main flavor. Feels a bit in the crossing between a Brown Ale and a Porter, nice and food friendly but I miss the little something extra. Becomes a bit average. Aroma is the best part.

On tap at Sørlandet Matfestival. It pours an unclear dark brown body under a dense, finger-thick beige head. The aroma is roasted and burnt, with some sour bonfire smoke. Hints of licorice and dark chocolate. It's medium bodied and quite dry on the palate, with a decent carbonation level. Mostly dark malts in the flavor too, roasted malts, dark chocolate, burnt malts, coffee notes, charcoal and some dark dried fruits. Some roasted malts kind of bitterness. Quite lasting finish. Suffers a bit from the rather low ABV this one, especially in mouthfeel of course, but it's nice anyway. Personally I prefer my porters a little less on the dark malt side, with more fruityness and less charcoal and bonfire. 190712

0,33 flaske (julegave fra kollega Per), hjemme en fredagskveld: brunsvart med ok beige skum. Kaffe, litt lakrissjokolade og hint av overmodne bjørenbær. Lettdrikkelig med mild bitterhet og nokså kort ettersmak.

Lightly smoked sausage to the taste profile, hints of earth and liquprice. Dark malt driven end. Developing taste profile. Pretty alright. (Tromsø 18.04.2020).
