Atlantic Coal Porter

12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Dark brown/black with lasting flat head and some lace. Roasted chocolate and chocolate chip cookie aroma. Nice bitter roasted chocolate dark fruit with a dry bitter chocolate finish. Medium body and medium carbo. Very nice sessionable classic porter. I could drink this all night.

Bottle in Bar Harbor. I thought this was a great porter, am I out to lunch? I though the aroma and flavour was well developed with chocolate, coffee and just enough hops to balance everything out. I really liked it.

Bottle from beachbum25. pours a super dark brown with a puffy tan head. This bottle actually was overcarbonated a bit. Aroma is very roasty and toasty with chocolate notes. Flavor is dry and roasty. Some hints of chocolate and a hint of hops as well. Decent porter.

An oily dark body and a medium-sized, thick caramel colored head characterize the appearance. Roasty, oaky, slightly smoky aroma, backed by nutty cocoa and a gentle, fruity, blackberry and grape soda undertone. Plenty of character in the taste- again, a coal-like roasty smokiness, an ongoing, lively carbonation, and a very complex bitter chocolate and hop dryness. Great medium to full-bodied texture, grainy and bittersweet (almost like a dark brown ale), with strong roasted coffee notes appearing late in the taste and lingering long into the drying, satisfying finish. A very nice porter, as jazzy as the musician for whom it was named.

Roasted brown with a typiclal porteresque aroma. No head on the pour. Mild roasted chocolate malt flavors. Dry finish with a mild palate. Ok overall.
