3.9 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 16/20
mmmmmm, yummmm, good porter. Poured with a tan, foamy, frothy, creamy, textured head and a little lace. Color is a very dark mahogoney with cherry highlights. Aroma is chocolate, coffee, malt, a little toastiness, and a hint of dark ripe fruit such as dates or prunes. Flavor’s about the same. Great body; nice and creamy not too much so. Very good finish. Session beer for sure.

Black with a tan head. Roasted malt chocolate and coffee in the aroma and flavor. Absolute dry finish that doesn’t linger.
Outstanding

Bottle thanks to Whaleman for sharing this one. Dark black body with a decent size head. Slight chocolate and malt in the aroma. Flavor was the same but warmed up nice with a good aftertaste that was smooth.

Blackish brown color with a medium tan head. Roasty chocolate and coffee flavors in the nose. Taste is a nice mix of coffee, roast, and maybe a bit of dark chocolate. High quality and easy drinkin’ porter. Another good one from Bells.

I’m might go out on a limb and say that this is one of my favorite porters now. We can’t get it down south, but I was able to snag a bottle while I was in Tampa. The aromas are malty with hints of nuts and dried fruits, such as dates and raisins. The taste is creamy with a nice balance in the carbonation. I’ll definitely pick up another bottle.
