Very roasted with chocolate, dark bread, some coffee and a hint of nuts. A coffee-chocolate bitterness.

Smooth and creamy with a thick body and a bit dry. Very pleasent.

Comment:

A well balanced porter with allot of taste without being overwhelming. It has allot of roasted flavour and also chocolate and it is all balanced by a good portion of sweetness. It was easy to drink but at the same time complex and interesting.

It was fantastic with chocolate but I can definitely imagine drinking this in pint glasses with my friends. However I should warn you that the alcohol (7%) is well hidden.

The price of 39 sek per bottle is the only downside with this beer, since it might be a bit to much for some people. However it is definitely worth buying a bottle to try it out. I'm personally going to buy a couple more just because it was so good.
