Feb 7, 2010 Pours dark brown to black with a tan head. The aroma is chocolate and roasted malt. The flavor is heavily roasted to burnt malt with a lot of dark, bitter chocolate. Medium, creamy mouthfeel and medium carbonation. One of the better robust porters I have tried and one that everyone should try.

Feb 1, 2010 Pours black with a brown head. The aroma is of chocolate and coffee. The taste is chocolate and coffee and is a bit like a mocha esspresso. Very tasty malty flavor. Drinks eveny better if let warm to room temperature. This could replace my mocha espresso in the morning quite nicely.

Jan 19, 2010 Deschutes Brewery
Black Butte Porter 12oz
Pours dark brown with a hint of red. Thick creamy tan head. Smoky aroma of roasted wood and malt. Flavor is much the same as the aroma. Smoke, roasted malts and coffee.
Approachable for a beer as dark as this. Oily mouthfeel. Won’t scare off anyone, but won’t impress the aficionado.

Jan 12, 2010 A: Pours a medium brown black color with an average head. The head fades leaving a cap and little to no lacing.
S: Nice malty aroma. Some chestnut and chocolate malt not much else.
T: Nice and smooth, I like my porters a little more creamy though. The taste had hints of chocolates and nuts, some dark fruits were also hinding beneath. A hint of smoke was noted as well. I would have liked a touch of sweetness in this one.
M: Kind of average in body, on the thin side if anything.
D: Pretty drinkable.
