Doctormirk (100), USA Mar 7, 2007 On tap. Smells roasty, nothing outstanding. Tastes nutty with chocolate. Thin.
stubby (315), Santee, California, USA Oct 6, 2008 I thought this was just a little heavy on the black patent malt. A tad too roasty for me, but a good porter nonetheless. MexiFinn (15), Nevada, USA Oct 5, 2008 This is a darn good porter, pours black/red, nice tan head, smoky chocolate/coffee taste... with a bit of a woodsy aftertaste, will buy again, good stuff! Cheers! darn1207 (329), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Sep 28, 2008 on tap from the deschutes bar in portland. dark brown pour with a hint of red. sweet aroma of toasty malts, chocolate and coffee. flavor follows suit. better as it warms. liked this a lot. K-8 BeerBunker (95), Burbank, Illinois, USA Sep 27, 2008 Pours black with a tan head. Very heavy carbonation. Aroma is of malt, caramel, and dark fruit. Creamy mouthfeel. Doesn’t taste much like a porter. It’s very sweet with hints of fruit and caramel malts. Lingering taste of weak coffee. Very drinkable, and worth drinking again. stchloe (197), Portland, Oregon, USA Sep 26, 2008 Great smoky and chocolate taste. By fare and away one of the best beers from Deshutes, and best porter for the price. Only a moderate ABV, but full bodied and substantial.
