Draft @ The Front Door in Boise: Pours a dark brown color with a moderate tan head. Nice lacing. Aroma is mild of roasted malts and mocha. Taste is has more mocha that roast, a bit of coffee, and a light creaminess. A little thin on the body for the style.

Draft @ Front Door, Boise, ID: Pours a dark black color, nice tan head. Nose of light cocoa and dark fruit, some roast, but very light. The flavor is thin, some sweet roast and vanilla, but lacking the chewy body this style needs. The finish is thin and light. Eh, ok.

Dark cocolate brown with a moderate tan coloured head that doesn’t last very long. Nice aromas of bitter chocolate, faint coffee. Very chocolatey palate, faintly raisiny and nutty notes as well, moderately sweet, and earthy faintly minerally note in the finish. A solid porter.

This black ale poured with a fluffy tan head. The flavor is chocolate malt, but is way too thin. There is a slightly bitter finish. This is a disappointing version of one of my favorite styles.

Bomberfrom Bottle Barn! Nose of roastinesswith a coffee note; clear dark brown with a big tan, glass-lacing head; flavor has some coffee, chocolate, and a little pepperiness.

650 mL bottle. Black with a creamy white head. Roasted malt aroma. The taste isn’t as robust as I wanted it to be, but there’s some roasty character and a little chocolate taste to the finish.
