Very thick, almost rosy cream-coloured head over almost black brown beer. Chestnuts, chocolate, herbs, heather, resin. Liquorice in the taste, but drier, cigar ashes, dry wood. Black chocolate, pine needles, resin. Medium bodied, quite slick, chewy. The aftertaste shows strangely enough for 5.4%, some alcohol. Quite special, even original to some extent, light porter. Txs to Joren and gang!

0,75l bottle from the brewery. Bbe 13.10.2023. Natural cork was dried and stays so tightly that it brakes the bottleneck when opening it. I wish there wasn't too much glass on my beer. Clear red brown beer with no head. Aroma has malts, smoke, ashes and some tart notes. Flavor has same elements. Weird and messy, sour.
