On tap at 21st Amendment, June 2007. Dark brown (almost black) with ruby edges and a thick, beige head that lasts forever. Great, roasty chocolately/coffee nose. Has somewhat of a sharp, roasty bitterness then notes of toffee, chocolate and coffee. Medium bodied with smooth, soft carbonation.

Apr 21, 2008 Draft at brewpub: reddish brown color. Fairly light color even for a porter. Aroma is chocolate, PNW hops, caramel, some roast and coffee. Medium to light body, quite sweet. While the description might sound promising, the beer itself lacks refinement.

Delirium (433), Santa Cruz, California, USA
Apr 8, 2008 Draught at the brewpub. Pours black with brown highlights and a small off-white head. Aroma is light roasted malt, with some rich chocolate notes. Flavor is mainly roasted malt, mostly rich but a little ashy in places, with a hint of hops in the finish. Slightly thin mouthfeel. Middle-of-the-road, but good.
