Bottle: Poured a deep black color porter with a small dark brown foamy head with average retention and some light lacing. Aroma of black chocolate and cocoa is pretty intense and enjoyable with some dry light bitter roasted malt notes also perceptible. Taste is also dominated by rich smooth dark chocolate notes with quite a bit of cocoa and dry roasted malt notes with subtle hints of coffee. Hops are very neutral. Body is full with nice smooth texture and medium carbonation with no apparent alcohol. Very well brewed.

500 ml bottle. Pours black with full head of big bubbles and spotty lacing. Aromas of oily chocolate, oysters, and black coffee. Flavors are similar with emphasis on the oily and oyster. Pleasant enough but a bit odd for a porter.

500mL bottle, pours black with a medium tan head. Aroma of chocolate, cherry-like dark fruits, and a bit of roasted malts. Flavour of medium roasted malts, a bit of cherry-like fruitiness, a bit of chocolate and some English caramel malts. A bit too syrupy for my liking, but drinkable enough. Not the best porter out there (especially with the surprisingly high ratings). Decent stuff.

500mL bottle, pours a murky orangey brown with a small beige head. Aroma of tropical fruits, citusy hops, grapefruit and sugary caramel malt - not the most aromatic, but rather subdued. Flavour reveals a more malt-heavy IIPA, with lots of caramel malt, tropical fruits (mango, peach and pineapple), some bitter grapefruit rind and citrus hops. Seems a bit under-attenuated with some residual sugars, but not too much of a flaw. Solid drinkable IIPA that's a bit messy.

Bottle courtesy of argoO at Dc tasting. Black-brown body, beige head. Big brown chocolate tastes. Mossy chocolate, a load of peat. Very English/Scottish feel. Perfect clean mouthfeel. Rich crystal malt, but oh so sessionable.
