Deep dark brown in colour, almost completely opaque. Aroma of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate and some light sweetness and spices. Full-bodied; Strong roasty flavours lasting a long time with a lactic quality and a bit of nuts prevailing. Aftertaste shows the standard qualities - coffee, chocolate and dark cherries. Overall, a good heavy porter - I don’t really think this should be an English Strong...but that’s just me. Regardless, it is worth trying! I sampled this 65 cL bottle purchased from Binny’s Downtown in Chicago, Il on 08-October-2007.
