Poured deep brown with small brown head. Aroma of malt and not to much else. Flavor was terrible. For a minute I thought I was drinking out of a drity creek or something. One of the worst porters i’ve encountered.

Bottled, bought in Wal-Mart in Aberdeen, Washington. Clear brown color, short off-white head. Aroma of roasted malt, some coffee, hint of chocolat, some blackcurrant. Quite bitter taste, fruity chocolat, burned sugar. Some rum maybe indeed.

12 oz. bottle from mar- thanks! Served in pint glass- poured very dark brown with ruby tints when held to light, medium carbonation, tan head tried to formed but just couldn’t muster it. Aroma of coffee, bakers chocolate, smoke, and roasted malts. HIts the mouth with a medium body, malt comes in immediately followed by some coffee highlights, middle was some cream, finish has nice feel.

Thanks to ghawener. Wow! This porter is amazing. Pours almost pitch black with a creamy, tan, head. Medium bodied, full taste of chocolate, coffee and dark caribbean rum. Very well balanced, perfect.
