This full, complex beer is an homage to one of Mike’s best known beers. At 7% ABV it’s an extremely smooth beer without cloying sweetness, but with all the roasted/chocolate/coffee flavours you’re looking for in your dark beers. Take a Dark Orbit in our space ship to Planet Delicious.

From tap at BPBW '19, Friday session. Pleasantly smokey, slightly chocolate-y porter that drinks below the ABV, has light body and soft carbo.

Tap @ Både &. Black body with a medium sized beige head. Aroma and taste like a nice classic porter, dark roasted malt, dark chocolate, coffee, some dry fruit and balanced bitterness. Nothing extraordinary, just a plain well brewed god tasting porter.

Can from Drankenhandel Leiden. Deep roasted malt aroma with dark chocolate, liquorice, notes of coffee and mocha, more dark roast. Flavour is pretty bitter and roasty with a medium sweetness. Body is medium. Nicely roasty and bitter Porter, very aromatic, with a bit less liquorice and more coffee this would have been absolutely smashing.

33cl can from Biiru, Tallinn. Pours pitch black with a tanned head. Roasty aroma with notes of dark chocolate, dark fruits and hints of coffee. Sweet, flavourful and quite balanced with a nice bitterness in the finish. Quite enjoyable.

It is a great beer by any account. Slight sharpness, robust, not creamy nor roasty. Find a perfect balance that put it right on the edge of classic porter, baltic porter and stout. Online beergium

Smell- weak to medium, malt, roast, dark chocolate, cofee. Foam- medium-thick, malt, some roast.Head is large, dark brown color, beautiful foam, I like it. Appearance- as usual some interesting label.Very dark brown, but basically black, weak carbonation. From - pint glass Taste - malty, some coffee, faint roast, a bit of sweetness mixed with roast and bitter tones. Very neutral and easy drinkable, balanced quite well. Bit dry in aftertaste also.

Black with a lasting off-white head. Roasted aroma with chocolate, coffee and bacon smoke. Sweet roasted flavour with chocolate, licorice, toffee and bacon. Just barely enough roasted bitterness to get a bit of balance to the sweetness.
