3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
Draught. Poured dark clear red brown with a medium beige head. Moderate lacing. Maple overtones in the aroma. Roasty notes in the medium body, Just a tinge of maple sweetness. Roasty finish, with a hop edge that surprised me.
2.9 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 11/20
A dark clear reddish brown porter with a thin moka head. In aroma, a pleasant nutty chocolate, caramel, light butterscotch. In mouth, a bitter porter with bitter chocolate, faint maple extract, not bad. On tap at the brewpub, July 30 2011.

Easily the most interesting beer on their menu. Smoky rich porter with a faint sweet maple backbone. Delicious, and different than what you usual find at a tiny local brewpub. Well done.

Draught@brewpub (Portland, OR)
Dark nut brown color, small beige head. Toasted coffee in the otherwise caramelly nose. Light to medium bodied. Sweetish caramelly flavor with coffee and coffee beans. Not really a porter, more like a sweetish red ale with coffee.
3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 2/5 OVERALL 12/20
Chocolate sweetness; low roast. Appears a dark, dark mahogoney but tinges of garnet. Chocolate and molasses start and leave a slightly sweet finish. Medium-heavy body. A good porter; less smoke and more chocolate flavor.
