Bottle. Black body with a small beige head. Strong aroma of smooth dark malt, wood, chocolate, vinous and aquavit. Flavor is smooth as well, dark malt, mild roasted, chocolate, wood, vanilla, aquavit, balanced bitterness and smooth, warming alcohol. Fine body and long lasting pleasant aftertaste. Solid stuff.

0,33 flaske (batch #1374 - 18.02.15) fra polets nettbutikk (?), hjemme: ingen skal si at jeg ikke følger instruksene til punkt og prikke - her sitter jeg, en kald januarkveld med fyr på peisen slik NØ anbefaler til dette ølet, som er brunsvart med et fint skum som varer lenge i mitt Durham-glass. Shirley Horns cd Light Out of Darkness gir meg det perfekte lydteppet, siden denne Imp. Aquavit Porter virkelig skaper lys og varme i vintermørket. Superb balanse mellom maltkropp, fatlagring og mørk, lakrissjokoladeaktig bitterhet. Jeg legger beina høyt og lar velværet synke inn over meg.

Bottle 33 cl. Pours an opaque black with a tiny, beige head. Nose is sweet roast and alcohol - disappointingly little imprint of the aquavit. Rich, sweet, body. Lowish carbonation, sweet roast, vanilla - and that's about it. I remember the Aquavit Porters from Haandbryggeriet to be much more distinct. 050118
