Glass came with a super dark brown colored beer that had very little aroma that I could detect. It smelled a tad like chocolate. Flavor was very weak and body was super thin. Poor porter.

Draft at brewer. Nitro. Don’t care for nitro. Black with tan head and the nitro head....don’t like nitro. Scent....is malt. Taste is coffee and malt. Thin nitro porter....

Nitro. Typical Nitro look: opaque black with even 1/2 stable head. Slight diacetyl in nose. Metallic, not yielding because of the nitro pour. Creamy nitro thin mouthfeel kills off some of the flavors, which are sweet like licorice. Not bad but not good either.

Nitro pour. Dark brown. Sweetish, fudgey nose with light vanilla. Nitro-dulled palate can only show me light caramel. A horrible way to present beer.

on tap-pours a tan head that laces with black color. Aroma is chocolate, malt. Taste is thin, coffee, malt. Brewer Matt said this and the British Ale are new additions.
