Bottle: I love this name, as if there’s a light porter? This is the first sticky head I’ve gotten from an Aksarben brew, and also the first one with any real darkness to it. The aroma tries to be coffee-based, but it also has a sweet factor. Same with the flavors ... there’s a definite coffee tone involved, but there’s also a bubble-gumminess that shouldn’t be here. The beer’s a bit watery, too.

Pours dark brown with a light brown head. Aroma is roasty, light chocolate, and medium strength coffee notes. Flavor was earthy with what I would call soil and some chocolate mixed in. Medium body and it got better and more chocolatey as it warmed.

On tap at the brewpub. This is a beautiful beer in appearance: Black with a khaki head. Strong coffee and molasses aroma. A bit of licorice here as well. They really nailed the flavor to this one- a rich black coffee taste, balanced with some malty sweetness. There’s a really nice lingering coffee roasted mouth feel long after the last sip. A surprisingly good porter.
