Clear, dark brown pour, opaque in the glass; thick and frothy head, long-lasting and khaki hued; sticky foam webs lace the glass. Fine malted grain and light cocoa nose. Subtle, earthy sweetness with dark chocolate and cocoa powder elements; fine, balanced bitterness. Heavy body; smooth and heavily silky.

A very fine, very satisfying robust porter; balanced and complex.

ABV: 6.8%; pouring temperature: 49.8 °F; canning info: 11/17/25

Copenhagen 2/3 2024. 47,3 cl can from Kihoskh, Sønder Boulevard, Kbh. V. Drawing of a complaining elderly man with hat and butterfly on the can. Eugene Debs, I presume.

Pours opaque dark brown with a big light beige head. Settles as 0,2 cm thick layer of foam just covering the surface of the beer. Clinging to the sides of the glass. Moderate lacing.

Aroma is medium intense with sweet, malty, lightly roasted odor mingling with dark fruits. Dark toasted malt, toffee and caramel. Milk chocolate and a gentle hint of bitter coffee.

Light carbonation. Medium tick, oily, slightly viscous, soft, smooth and lightly tingling texture.

Flavor is medium intense with a strong sweetness without getting cloying. Followed by a moderatley strong bitterness. Aftertaste is sweet and lingers for a while. Finish is soft and gentle.

Fine smooth and entirely pleasant Porter.

Pretty much black with a thick tan head. Aroma is chocolate and a bit of coffee. Taste is slightly roasty and very pleasantly milk chocolatey with a touch of hops, especially in the finish. Medium body.

Not particularly unique but a great straightforward porter.

 

 

 

Rich looking dark brown pour, small tan head fades to a ring, no lacing. Notes of roasted malt, coffee. Smells better than it tastes, good, not great.

Dark, dark brown with a big tan head. The aroma gives me a lot of damp wood for some reason, but in a comforting sort of way. Super smooth with more bitterness than sweetness, but fairly subdued. The caramel and roast iness comes through as it warms. Overall nothing innovative, but now I feel like I have something to compare every other porter to. Drinking it gives me the sudden urge to go strike for better working conditions...

 

 

12oz FILLED AUG/13/21 (4 months ago) poured into a tulip pint glass at fridge temp 6.8% ABV. The beer pours dense black with minimal light penetration and light brown head. The head recedes to a thin ring and single layer of tiny bubbles. The aroma is mild with roasted malt and coffee. The taste is bittersweet roasted malt with a hint of dark chocolate and coffee. Mildly bitter. The mouthfeel is thin to medium bodied with average carbonation and a mostly dry finish. Overall, very good. Straightforward, but unflawed. Way to easy to drink at 6.8%

 

 

12 oz can into a mug.

A: Dark brown color with a frothy two-finger tan head.

S: Big chocolate aroma dominates with some roasted malt and a faint hint of anise. Can't pick up much hops.

T: Dark chocolate and coffee. A very mild astringency lingers in the aftertaste.

F: Medium-bodied, not much carbonation. Dry finish.

O: One of my favorite examples of one of my favorite styles.
