[Bottle] Pours deep brown with a smallish tan head. Aroma is caramelly and roasty malts, some lactose, baker’s chocolate, and some coffee. Flavor is really nice and roasty, lots of chocolate, some roasted coffee beans, some sweet malt and maybe a touch of lactose. Medium mouthfeel is aided by the carbonation. Really nice and drinkable, I could drink several of these.

Reddish-brown pour with a beige head. Nice roasted aroma. Flavors are well balanced..chocolate, coffee, sweetness, and a dry finish. Hops are present but it is part of the balance. A good beer that I am glad is available again in my area.

Bottle Pours a colalike brown black with a good tan head. The head last well and laces nicely. Has good aroma of malts, coffe, and chocolate. Blended very well. Has good flavors and a soft finish. A good mouthfeel with and oily to watery texture. Good carbination makes this a very refreshing beer. This is sweet and medium bodied. Very well done.

12 oz bottle. solid mahagony color. orangey edges. quickly fading khaki cap. roasty dark chocolate nose. rich slightly chewy chocolate flavors with a nice underlying roasty character. well matched bitterness by just the right amount of subtle hop. a solid porter. easy to drink with a good balance and fine flavor.

Deep brown/black beer, thick tan head. Aroma is quite rich and sweet. Loads of cocoa/chocolate and a soft herbal character. A little bit chewy and sweet with loads of rich cocoa and chocolate. Lightly chewy with a bit of cocoa and dark malts. Very smooth and well-balanced. Lovely.
