Bottle, 7%. Fruity aroma, hint of bitter alcohol. Clear chestnut colour. Small frothy tan head. The flavour is fruity, rotten fruit. Has hints of rum or gløgg or what do I know even though it does not seem to be an ingredient. Late roasted liquorice note. Unpleasant bitterness.

Bottle. Pours hazy very dark copper brown with shades of ruby and airy light tan head. Faint aroma of roast and malt, with some fruity notes. Bitter flavour of roast and some ill-applied hops, with notes of yeast, caramel malt and bread. Bitter, roasty and metallic afteraste. Just another crappy beer from Vadehavsbryggeri. Pleas stop brewing or change location.

Bottle. It pours an almost clear body under a dense, finger-thick light beige head. The aroma is lightly vegetal, with some rosted malts and coffee. It’s medium bodied and pleasantly carbonated, semi-dry, with flavors of roasted malts, some coffee and dark chocolate. Vegetal hints and some faint spiced notes too. Cardamom perhaps. Lasting finish. A very boring one, sure not my kind of porter. 150418
