Commercial Description:
A superb porter, hearty & dark. This one is a staff favorite, made with pale, crystal, Munich, chocolate, and black malts. The darker malts give Coal its color and rich flavor. We use Target and Willamette hops to yield a very subtle hop flavor in this porter. We cellar this beer for close to six months before releasing it on the thirsty throngs of fans.

bottle. Aroma has notes of malt, sweat, metal, and grain. Massive light tan foamy head and a dark brown/black hue. Flavor is chocolate, grain, malt, metal, and sweat. Palate is light/med bodied and lively carbonation. Very fizzy beer with a decent flavor but a little off. Below average overall.

En fût. Verre de dégustation chez Knox Road Grill (Bar Harbor, ME). Arôme: Odeur de café avec une pointe de chocolat et de caramel. Apparence: La couleur est noire opaque. Présence d’un mince col beige mousseux et d’une fine dentelle sur le verre. Saveur: Goût de café avec une pointe de caramel et d’houblon. Durée moyenne de l’arrière goût. Palette: Le corps est moyen avec une texture légèrement crémeuse. Faible effervescence en bouche. Légère présence de torréfaction en arrière goût. (Rating #1782)

Pours a dark amber with a large beige head that quickly dissipates. Aroma is medium sweet roast and chocolate. Flavor is roast chocolate and light coffee. Light to medium body, light creamy texture. Finishes somewhat long and chocolatey bitter.

Dark brown colour. Chocolatey, nutty aroma with fudgey accents. Rich, chocolate taste. Decent body. Lots of nuts, toast, chocolate. Good balance. Very sessionable.

Draught. Deep dark brown with reddish tinge and stained glass lacing. Solid roasted malt aromas. Coffee. Hint of hazelnut. Dry and astringent body. Solid, decent, but boring.
