Solid lookinb dark and deep brown, some deeper red shows around the edges with a thin off-white head that lays a thin haze for ahile then disappears, lace in minimal spots. Smell is a solid roastyness, rich, lush, a nice touch of chocolate and coffee mixed in over the top. Taste is more of the same with a nice deep dark roasted malt flavor with a nice light mix of some chocolate and coffee, notes of nuttyness and roasted tangyness that lingers. Too bad its short lived in its flavor and hold, could be held a longer with a bit more body. Feel is close to medium, lightly creamy, and has a fairly nice finish of tang and mild bitterness that sticks for a smidgen longer then the actual taste. A pretty good porter, a longer lasting flavor and some more heft in the body and feel and this would be a keeper for sure. With that said, I did have another, it was the better of the bunch that I had during my visit.
