Sample at the B.O.B. as Fahrenheit Porter. Dark brown pour with a medium tan head. Roasted malt nose with a bit of coffee. Roasty and creamy flavor, but it’s kinda thin. Doesn’t know whether it’s a brown porter or a robust. My guess is that it’s an attempt at the latter, but could use some more body.

Draft sample at B.O.B.. Poured clear dark brown color with an average frothy off-white head that was mostly lasting with good lacing. Moderate toasted chocolate malt aroma. Medium body and smooth texture and flat carbonation. Medium roasted sweet flavor with a medium sweet finish of moderate duration. This beer met my expectations.

Dark brown color. Weak roast in the nose, light hints of chocolate. Body is lightly roasty, soft mouthfeel, finishing bitter and drying at the end. A fairly boring porter, needs a lot of work to stand up to the vast amount of porters out there nowadays.
