Had on tap at the Hay Merchant. A very good aroma from the tulip glass - notes of sweetness like molasses and pecans. A good flavor with a hint of dark chocolate and espresso notes. Pour dark with a dark brown head. One of my favorites. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Bottle. Brown/black pour with tan head. Smells sweet with fruit, chocolate and nutty notes. Tastes sweet at the start with a dark chocolate bitter aftertaste. Nice beer. ---Rated via Beer Buddy for iPhone

Medium Body like a poter but the flavor is a little more complex than many in the style. Bits of chocolate and roasted malt. Some nuttiness and a sweetness that works itself in rather nicely. Little bit of red fruit faint and way in the back of the sip. The pecans with their way in nicely and this is not some artificially flavored syrupy drink like some of the other pie ish beers you can find.

Draft at Mekong The porter was served in sniffer. The porter pours a very dark brown color with a thick brown head. The aroma was of sweet malts, chocolate, berries, and a little roastiness. There was hint of pecan aroma. The carbonation was average. The finish leaves a burnt chocolate & malt taste.

22 oz bottle. Pours dark brown, with ruby edges and a one finger tan head. Aroma is sweet malt, nuts and vanilla bean. Interesting taste of roasted malt, mild chocolate and, yes pecans. The pecan flavor is light. This is not some gimmicky liquid pecan pie. Moderate bodied & smooth drinking.

Bomber poured a clear dark reddish brown with a lasting tan head. Aromas of pecans, brown sugar, dark chocolate and graham crackers. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of pecans, graham crackers, dark chocolate, , carmel and brown sugar with a smooth lingering pecan finish.

bottle. pours dark brown with nice white head that vanished fast! aroma of nuts and roasted malt. taste was similar to a brown more then a porter did not get any pecan.

22 oz bottle from Table and Vine, plus on draft @ Sunset Grill and Tap, Allston, MA. Deep reddish-brown with a solid retention and lacing. The nose doesn’t remind of Pecans at all, more like a fruity aroma, plus some butter. Taste is super sweet. Syrupy. Butter comes out throughout the sip. The mouthfeel is more sticky when sampled on Draught. In the bottle, not so much. I had to try it more than once because I was undecided if I liked it or not. I’m still not sure what to make of this brew. It gets a few points on being different if nothing else.

On tap at battleship. Pours a very dark brown color with a thick brown head. Aroma is of sweet malts, chocolate, berries, and a little roastiness. Flavor has some burnt malt, nuts, chocolate, and coffee. Leaves a burnt chocolate & malt finish. Smells much different than how it tastes.

@dstructos Daks Back-22oz bottle–pours a light brown head and brown color. Aroma is frankenberry(TM by someone @Gathering). Taste is baker’s dark chocolate, some earthy hops.
