Dicks Smoked Porter

Appears quite light for a porter with a good, loosely-bubbled head and nice lace and a dark malty aroma with notes of caramel. Flavour is that of coffee, roasty and full of toffee with a nutty hop finish. Creamy body with decent carbonation. Pleasant porter - many thanks, G!

Found this on tap at a local restuarant. Frothy off white head, dark brown color. Taste was very smokey and sweet with a touch of bitterness. I enjoyed this beer good cold can even handle it after it’s warm.

Head is initially small, frothy, off-white, mostly diminishing. Body is murky dark brown. Aroma is lightly malty (roasted grain), lightly hoppy (resin), with a note of manure. Flavor is moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter. Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, moderately bitter. Medium body, watery texture, lively carbonation. Everyone knows I like farmy odors in beer, but never have I found one so brutally manure-like. Horse blanket, fine. Horse poop, no thank you. It ruined the aroma for me, and I just couldn’t recover.

GArnet under a big, frothy tan head. Aroma was chocolate and coffee and caramel but covered by smoke. Rich and creamy, full-bodied. The flavor held hints of chocolate and coffe and such but was overpowered by the smokiness. Unpleasant.

Oozed out of the bottle after opening. Murky, with an apple cider hue. Smooth carbonation; somewhat light bodied. Chocolate and toast in the malts. Notes of campfire and spicy yeast. Hoppy (grass and a little pine) and curiously aromatic (cow pasture).
