IPA from Leiden, thanks to Craftmember for sharing. Thick and creamy, thickly lacing, egg-white head and warm, deep orange blonde colour, pretty clear at first but misty with deposit. Aroma of orange peel, tangerine, light pine, biscuit, caramel, damp cloth, peach, roasted pine nuts, strawberry. Taste fruity, subduedly sweet, peach, starfruit, apple peel, citrus peel fraîcheur, soft carbo, lean and supple mouthfeel with a caramelly, lightly toasted maltiness, ending in an aromatic, leafy bitterness, citrusy, spicy hoppiness, long and drying, with fruity yeastiness piercing through. Nice and balanced, quenching; seen its yeastiness, I’d rather consider this a hybrid between American style IPA and Belgian IPA.

Same Label (from the picture) of Leidsch Morsporter, but with a circle sticker on the front label saying ’Raisin Porter’ in English, with some of the other words on the sticker in Dutch, including the brew by date, of 27-October-2013. Deep dark brown coloured body with a rich tan head, only two centimetres tall. Aroma of deeply strong raisins, figs and prunes with a lot of roasted malt, some chocolate, unfinished yeast, bread, metal and a touch of nice caramel. Medium-bodied; Silky smooth mouthful with a good raisin flavour, some stronger chocolate flavours, hints of nuts, but with that pitted fruit flavour that hits at the end. Aftertaste shows a little earthiness from must, malt and even some vague hints of an old ale styled beer with mostly the elements of a porter or even a mild. Overall, a nice and robust beer with a good flavour profile, some strong raisin and pitted fruit sweetness and a complex malt taste at the end. I sampled this 33 cL bottle purchased from De BierKoning in Amsterdam, Holland, The Netherlands on 17-January-2015 for €2,65 sampled at home in Washington a day before our country’s birthday on 03-July-2015 to celebrate a different kind of red/white/blue. Brewed: 27-October-2013 // Purchased: 17-January-2015 // Sampled: 03-July-2015
