Can, 0.44l. Aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, caramel and cappuccino. Pours pitch black color with medium sized soapy light brown head, fair lacing and average sparkling appearance. Taste starts medium sweet and rich roasted malt, chocolate and wood, following is grassy, ashy and nutty with vanilla note, mouthfeel is smooth and mild spicy, while finish is pretty bitter. Medium to full body, creamy texture and average carbonation in palate. Robust porter for a very lively village…

Can. Pretty much black with a cm of light tan head. Roasty aroma with coffee, chestnut, lurking brown sugar. Smooth texture, medium bodied, moderate carbonation. Bittersweet with more chocolate than guessed and a nicely judged degree of bitterness. Not sure about the citrus that goes along with the bitter end but otherwise this is good.

Can 440ml (Vinmonopolet Kirkenes, Vasa Sessions) Brown colour, small off- white. Chocolate, fruity hops. Medium-bodied. Toasted, licorice, a bit fruity but a bit harsh hoppyness. American hops - kind of CDA.

Can. It pours a dense finger-thick dark beige head over a mostly black body. Some lacing. The aroma is roasted and lightly burnt, with notes of ash, some coffee and a good dash of dark chocolate. Some piney, grassy hops joins in the far back, along with some dark dried fruits. It's full-bodied, smooth and softly carbonated, quite dry, still with a little sweetness lightly coating the mouth. The flavor has a decent bitterness, feeling both hoppy and malty, with roasted malts, some burnt notes, charcoal, caremel and dark dried fruit hints, some dark chocolate and finally a nice piney, citrus zesty hoppyness and a faint touch of grass. Lasting finish. I'd prefer a tad more carbonation here, but it's a delicious one anyway. Really lovely. 211101
