Svartekunst - Black Magic - is a Porter Stout we brewed initially in summer 2011, to celebrate our Batch Number 100. Each year sees a new vintage, and the detailed recipe is adjusted each time, so that later tasting sessions can make some really interesting comparisons. As the label suggests, this is a highly potent and powerful beer. The bitterness, however, will fade in the cellar, and the vinous tones will amplify. Coffee, burnt notes, smoke and leather are the dominant flavours. Residual sweetness is heavy, while the hops are dry with a bitter finish. We believe this stout can improve for 20 years, hence the legend "Best After" rather than "Best Before".

750ml bottle pours a very oily, opaque black with some clumpy, spitty, beige head. Nose has some fusel notes at first, rubbery, a little boozy, a little cakey, some licorice, some molasses, some heavy char. Flavor malt, some toast, a little chocolate cereal, some boozy, some cleaning fluid, some liquid smoke. Oily finish. Aged too much? Not enough?
