Aug 24, 2007 Bottle. Pours a very deep ruby-brown with an average size diminishing creamy tan head. Nice aroma of roasted malt, chocolate, nuts and a hint of smoke. Dry flavour of roasted malt, coffee, chocolate, nuts, some hops and a light roasty/bitter finish. Medium bodied. A very good Porter!

Aug 16, 2007 this was unimpressive with a bit of an after bite. there are so many other gret US stouts like 8 Ball, Blackhawk and the robust Steelhead Extra. go for one of those others instead

Aug 10, 2007 Pour is a black with a small tan head, Aroma is super roasty but not much else. Flavor is about the same, a super roasted malt with some dark chocolate. Leaves a roasted aftertaste on the tounge after the bitter finish.

Aug 6, 2007 Tap. At the 14th Avery Anniversary party. A heavy brown malty stout with a malty, but burnt barley taste. A nice malty syrup finish.
