The barrel aging of this mild Peated Porter couldn't have turned out better. When pouring, the aromas such as cocoa, vanilla and dark red fruit meet you. At the first sip, the whiskey barrel with the mild peat character comes to the fore a bit more, after which the honey, cocoa and red fruit flavors come to the fore in the aftertaste, which together gives this a cherry bonbon experience.

Aus der Flasche (bbe 16.02.2029) im 2025-10 getrunken. Bei diesem Porter konnte ich es mir schon fast denken das wir beide keine Freunde werden, da ich Aromen wie Räucherschinken oder Torffeuer zwar gern im Whisky mag, aber gar nicht im Bier. Und genau das sind die beiden dominierenden Aromen neben den klassischen Röstaromen von dunkler Schokolade. Daher ist dieses Bier handwerklich gut gemacht aber leider kein Bier für mich!

Op tap bij Borefts '25. Zwarte kleur, dunne beige kraag. Flink wat turf, gebrande mout, pinda's, fruitig, vooral veel vingerverf, vrij dun en licht. Tegenvallend.

0.33 l bottle from 'Mr. Hop', best before February 2029. Black with a thin, frothy, slowly diminishing, beige head. Sweetish-malty, quite roasty, gently smoky-medicinal and a little fruity aroma of dark chocolate, licorice, coffee, peat, seaweed and some dark fruits. Quite sweet, malty, gently roasty-bitter, quite smoky-medicinal and slightly fruity taste of dark chocolate, coffee, licorice, whisky, peat, seaweed and some dark fruits, followed by a long, gently roasty-bitter, slightly boozy and a little woody finish. Medium to full body, gently effervescent mouthfeel, soft carbonation. Lovely brew, fairly complex, quite outspoken. Will miss this brewery, even if it's already not the same as it once was.

330mL bottle, pours a deep dark brown / black with a small beige head. Aroma has plenty of peat, light toasted malt, and soft bready notes. Flavour has a nice smoky whiskey barrel, light sweetness, and toasted malt. Very light on the palate, especially for a high ABV porter, but has a good balance, maintaining high drinkability. Good stuff.

Dark brown. No head. Oily and flat. Light peat smoke on the aroma. On the palate, decent body, with a light fruitiness, and a fair bit of smoke.
