33 cl bottle served in white wine glass. Hazy golden pour with a clear white ephemerous head. Aroma is medium to high: roses, cardamom, porridge. Taste is light, watery, nice carb. Fresh, no bitterness. Does not linger for long. I do prefer the black one.

33 cl bottle at Cottage Café, Geneva, right opposite the all famous Jet d´eau. It pours very dark brown, some reddish shades. Tan head lasts very little. Aroma is quite intense: raisins, rum, sweet PX sherry wine, blackberry, tobacco... Mouth starts with some quite good nice carb, and an slick, oily feeling to it. Good acidity as it develops. Finish doesn´t last long, but has a good bitterness hanging there. Very decent porter.

Bottle. Pours hazy very dark with airy but stable light head. Clear aroma of fruit and chocolate, with notes of malt and yeast. Roasty flavour with pronounved notes of lactose and chocolate and touches of yeast and hops. Roasty and malty afteraste. Rather sweet for the style but nice.
