A good porter, quite similar to other good porters I’ve tried. Has that kinda oily feel I’ve experienced in other porters. It may not distinguish itself in its’ class, but definitely a solid porter.

Aug 25, 2008 this is a very good porter. I thought it was one of Atlantic Brewings best offerings. it is as black as night but has a great taste. it is a meal in a glass. you can really taste the hints of the chocolate malts. it has a very rich flavor and a small hop finish

Aug 22, 2008 12 oz bottle. Very dark brown with a light tan head. Screwed up opening the bottle (darn unexpected screw-tops), so I have no idea what size the head would be otherwise. Anyhow, rich chocolate aroma with some roasted coffee notes. Flavor is chocolate, some dark fruit, roasted coffee. A little alcohol shows through. Not too bad.

Aug 18, 2008 12oz bottle, purchased at the brewery. Poured deep brown with ruby highlights, capped with a moderate-sized tan head. Appealing aroma of espresso, mocha, chocolate malt, and vanilla. The body is a little thinner than I expected. Flavor begins with with chocolate malt, with espresso, charcoal, and vanilla flavors gradually building. Finish is fairly bitter, with notes of ash. Overall, this is a decent porter; it displays some flavor while remaining approachable.
