Bottle 35,5 cl. Courtesy of Doodler. Pours an almost black with a vague tint of orange with a dense beige cappuchino head. Lovely roasted aroma, vanilla and some coffee. Medium body, some hard roast and licorice, distinct malt astringency but not unpleasantly so. 230311

Pours a solid black with a respectable tan head that slowly dissipates to a cap on top. Smells of whiskey and wood, chocolate and coffee heavy on the booze and wood. Taste is a bit hot with alcohol up front. Lots of creamy chocolate and roasted malts mid way through. Kind of a dry finish with a vodka/rubbing alcohol taste lingering long after each sip. Syrupy mouthfeel, medium body, light level of carbonation. Young hot and unbalanced, the flavors need time to meld and soften. Some time might fix this one, but as is this one is only ok.

Pours a clear dark brown with beautiful ruby highlights and a creamy off white head that dissipates but never really goes away. Smells of chocolate and roast Yum! Tastes of chocolate, roast, and a bit of hop bite with a lingering roast in the finish. Creamy smooth mouthfeel, medium body, light but ample carbonation. Great porter! Smooth and silky and chocolaty. Must try more Mayflower.

Bottled, thanks baggio! Hazy amber, small head. Aroma of honey and grapefruit. Very sweet with peppery alcohol and caramel. Full bodied with rounded mouthfeel, notes of ripe fruits and honey. Warming finish with some white pepper.

Courtesy of an amazing trader I’ve been lucky enough to encounter. Bomber pours deep clear copper with off white head. The aroma has an initial modest pulse of dark fruity esters and molasses but then quickly heads into bourbon, some oak and mild heat at the end of the draw. The taste is smooth and sweet with esters like apricot, pear and prune and then picking up caramel moving into fairly smooth bourbon and faint wood like notes. Smooth yummy brew that will only improve with cellar time.
