Bottle from Beers of Europe, consumed 20-12-09 Pours black with a wonderful beige head standing proudly on top. The aroma is a little bitter toffee with roasted notes and coffee also showing. Really tasty porter with nice tangy edge. The coffee also shows in the mouth, there is a pleasant warmth from the alcohol and a light bitterness ripples across the tongue. Some dark sugars also show to complete matters, its a nice beer. A7 A5 F7 P4 Ov14 3.7

Bottle, 8.5%. Vinous and dusty aroma. Clear very dark brown colour. Big stable bubbly light brown head. The flavour has some sweet liquorice at first. Turns rather creamy and finishes a tad more roasted. This is one of the few beer styles where I can live with a little oxidation, but this is enough.
