Beer Advent Calendar: Day 9

Black Boss Porter
16.9oz
9.4% alc.



Maybe it was the fact I split a pitcher of Sierra Nevada Celebration Ale with J-Tizzle after work, but the nose on this Porter was absolutely stunning. Huge deep boozy smell, that I thought would be a bit too much given the 9.4% alc content. But it is impressively smooth. Great smooth body and a nice finish. Lots of chocolate. I have a little more than 14oz to go, so this should be a great topper to a nice dinner with a mate.

Sounds nice, I've never heard of it, I'll have to keep an eye out. Imperial porters can be damn good beers, it's nice to see so many people making them. I just made a regular porter that's ready to keg right now, waiting for it to warm up enough in the garage that it won't freeze when I put it in the kegerator out there...

Made in Poland, of all places. Really really good.
