he doesn’t know me, i could have a trunk full of chainsaws! .. . i get sweet tar and a really good dose of coconut, like lots of coconut, with very very light oak and light vanilla bean .. .
shit, this stuff is smooth as worm butt silk .. . this is absolute quality and easily the best Bridgeport item, even better than their door to door handjob service! .. . .

Draft. Black with a small tan head. Lots of chocolate and roast on the nose. Flavor is smooth and a little bitter. Didn’t know this was barrel aged, and it didn’t cross my mind. Not bad though, but a little more stout than porter if you ask me.

Rustyham (1300) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Very smooth, a nice easy drinking porter, roasty, smoothnes from oak. Not very crazy or high in abv, but a nice smooth silky Mouthfeel. Like a slightly stronger St. Charles Porter

illinismitty (2238) - Nashville, Tennessee, USA - JAN 21, 2012
Bottle shared with Rustyham. Pours deep brown with a tan head. Aroma of oal, wet grains, and alcohol. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Flavor of chocolate and nutty malts, countered by a spicy bitterness. Not many sugars left to balance things out, and overattenuated for my tastes. Oaky and dry finish. Just ok

Had this beer to long ago, just transferring from a app I was using to rate beer. As I drink these again I will add a better review.

Bottle from Papago. Very dark brown pour with a beige head. Aroma of oak, bourbon and red wine. Flavors of vanilla, roast, cocoa, red wine and some ash. Damn nice.
