Poured with a great tan head into a snifter. Head slowly diminished. Smelled of chocolate and some roasty qualities as well as some caramel. Taste was much the same with some grapey tones, coffee, finishing with a nice smokiness. Good porter, was really good once it was warmed up a little.

Oct 12, 2008 12 oz. bottle. Pours dark brown color with a medium sized beige head. The aroma is dark chocolate, light roasted malts, light darker fruits, and a hint of smoke. The flavor is much of the same: dark chocolate, roasted malt, a hint of smoke, mildly sweet caramel. Medium bodied with good mouthfeel. This is a very solid porter.

Oct 11, 2008 Bottle. Pours very dark brown with tan head. Aroma is coffee, chocolate, brown sugar and roasted malt. Flavor is dominated by strong coffee. Also tasted roasted malt, chocolate and brown sugar. If you like your coffee black you will enjoy this. Resembles a stout more than a porter.
