3.1 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Dark brown with a tan head. Aroma mild milk chocolate roast. Light-medium body, light, clean malt sweetness, and a touch of chocolaty-coffee flavor, hints of nut, coupled with a milky malt body and some flavor. Light on hops. Good, but not great, especially for the style.
3.3 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 9/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
A really good porter because of its uniqueness. The body is weaker than most, with only a little bit of maltiness roasted or otherwise. But makes up with an evervescent quailty, lambic esque carbonation that pops.
