Draught at Craft Bier Fest Wien Tasting Sessions, shared by Werckmeister. Thanks Stefan!
Very dark brown, hazy body, with a big, very creamy, beige head.
Great, smooth aroma of barrel notes, vanilla, banana, dried fruits, berries, subtle cognac.
Quite light taste, with dry wood, vanilla, dried fruits, cognac, coffee, cocoa.
Full, velvety mouthfeel, with a soft carbonation.
Finishes bitter, roasty, dry, wooden, with coffee, dry cocoa.
Interesting. The nose is really lovely and promises a lot, but the taste is too light for my liking and also feels a bit unbalanced. Another highlight is the velvety creaminess. Overall this could have been wonderful, if the taste had more body and balance.

330 ml bottle.
Very dark brown body, with a small, creamy, dark beige head.
Aroma of dried fruits, nuts, chocolate, some coffee, slight hops.
Tastes of coffee, dark fruits, hazelnuts, some dark chocolate.
Medium to light, oily mouthfeel, with an average carbonation.
Finishes quite soft, roasty, with coffee, some nuts and dark fruits.
OK. Pretty light bodied for a Porter, with the hazelnuts only in the background. Nothing special.

Bottle [from Euro Swap 2015-1 thanks to Sebilinz] @ home. Clear orange golden color, medium to full sized white head that lasts for a long time. Aroma is lightly malts, nicely fruity, fruit hops, tropical fruits. Taste lightly malts, decently hoppy, decently bitter, lightly fruity. Decent body and carbonation. Nice fruity pale ale.

Leicht hopfiger Antrunk, deutlich getreidig. Spritzig herber Mittelteil, im Nachgeschmack dagegen etwas dumpf. Wenig intensiver hopfiger Nachhall. 12/11/9/8//11
