Viven Smoked Porter is a fairly bitter porter beer, with a very smokey flavour. Accents of coffee and dark chocolate make for a powerful aroma in your glass.

Fles gedeeld met Roelzie. Het is een diep donkerbruin bier met een beige schuim. Het heeft een rokerige geur. De smaak is gebrande mout, drop en rook.

Almost pitch black body, lasting, beige creamy head. Very mildly smoked chocolatey aroma, a bit dusty. Lean, smoky taste, smoke, some chocolate. Very well hidden alcohol. Good stuff, nothing wow about it but good stuff.

Just smokey enough. Wish it had a bit more 'porter' about it though

330ml bottle - pours a deep black colour with a large frothy beige head. Aroma is roasted malts an initial smokiness that fades with some chocolate notes. A dark roasted malty taste, some liquorice and bitter chocolate flavours and a lingering ashy bitterness in the finish.

Bottle at the Poatersgat, Dark brown with creamy golden head. Aroma is beefy, roasty, little bit of bitterness, touch of smoke, bit of vanilla. Taste is nice, roasty, creamy, spicy, bit of meatiness. Slight bitterness at end. Pretty nice. Rerate: Jan 2014 Smells of frazzles. Tastes lovely, initial smoke and meat, but finish mellows into creaminess, roast. Smooth and great.

Bouteille: Deep chestnut-amber coloured, presumably hazy, stable off-white foamy layer, moderate bitter-sweet roasty - maybe smoky, yes - nose, some caramel and a hardly detectable fruityness underneath; moderate dryish bitter-sweet flavour, relatively light bodied, fizzy and not smooth at all; lingering dry roasty-bitter finish with even more dry bitterness in the aftertaste. Too rough...
