(Bottle 33 cl) Licensed, German version brewed for "Haus der 131 Biere".
Pours dark mahogany with a tint of red and a creamy, beige head. Nose full of licorice. Very full body with lots of roasted malt and accents of dried fruit. Lightly perfumy. Almost no bitterness. Pleasant - but closer to a malty Bock really. 170406

The style of this beer confuses me - the front label tells me, that it is a Porter, while the back label calls it a Dobbel bock, the appearance is much like a bock and it only has slight porter traces. The color is deep red with a lazing brown head. The aroma is sweet with only a touch of roasted malt. The flavor is sweet with quite a lot of chocolate. The mouthfeel is very smooth. OK.

Dark brown color. Light aroma of caramel and tomatoes. Poor taste, with sweet caramel and some roasted malt. Too simple.

Bottle (brewed under licence by Anker Brauerei Nagold, Germany): Very dark amber coloured with reddish "dots", thin lacing foamy layer; fruity (dried fruit) and vinous (port) nose with hints of alcohol, toffee, too; initial sweetish malty taste, bitter and sweet flavour; short, faint dry, chocolatey finish, a bit warming; rather watery (!) for a beer of 7.2% ABV. An odd brew: the front label calls it "Porter" the small label on the back calls it "Doppelbock"....!?
