Flag Porter 1825 Original

Pours a dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma is chocolate, molasses, slight coffee, and roasted malts. Flavor is pretty light with everything I expected from the aroma. This would be a pretty good session beer.

Ruby colored with a nice coffee and malty aroma. Flavor is thin bodied and tamer than I expected from the aroma.

I’ve been wanting to try this beer for a while and finally stumbled across it at a grocery store in MA of all places. Pours dark brown with a thin tan head. Smells of chocolate, coffee, roasty, some peppery splashes. Tastes slightly bitter with some sweet milk chocolate and full bodied. The malt profile is a bit disappointing on this one. I was hoping for some lactic hints and some burnt molasses, neither of which are present in this beer.

Flag Porter 1825 Black-Ruby. Nice head. Aroma: Chocolate, roasted malt. Flavor: Chocolate malt, roasted coffee. Coffee finish. Sweet. The Origional Porter!

Nice black pour with a thin tan head. Roasty malt in the nose and a very tame (traditional) taste of roasted malt and hints of chocolate bitterness in the finish.

Dark color with smoke and malt aromas and a chocolate malt taste. Very good beer.

12 oz bottle. Pours an opaque ruby hued dark brown color with a small head that dissipated quickly. Nose is dominant of cocoa powder and light roasted malt. Initial taste is very sweet almost too much before the cocoa powder begins domination just like the aroma. Mid palate display touches of roasted malt. Finishing sweet, cocoa and minor balancing hops. Body is light and thin. Head retention and Palate duration is average. A drinkable porter but nothing special.

12oz bottle pours out a dark brown almost black with a little red. Almost no head. A nice aroma of wood roast malts and sweetness. Tast of light smoke roast malt and a touch of sweetness. A pretty good porter.
