Fairly thick head and lacing on this brew. Mild, but still appealing chocolate aroma. The chocolate continues into the flavor profile, where it mingles with some roastedness and other dark malt flavors. This beer seems somewhat soft-bodied, especially for a porter, but somehow this does not hurt this beer. It is incredibly smooth and easy to drink, and I found myself enjoying it. Some definite hoppiness in the finish. I very well may be going back for more of this soon.
