Bottle:   Fairly black, thin to moderate beige head, fairly decent lacing.   Roasted malts, some ash, and a bit of burnt bakers chocolate on the nose.   Moderate roasted malts on the tongue.   Ash and hops are there, minor tho.   Pretty simple, straight forward, but clean.   Body and mouthfeel are moderate.   Lingering roastiness and a smidgen of ash and bakers chocolate.   Minor sweetness, little hops.   Tiz good, clean, but not out of the ordinary.   Overall, well put together.

Tap: Dark black with a small light brown head. Aroma of chocolate, coffee and root beer. Coffee flavor with full body and not too thin.

22oz bottle in an English pint. Pours very dark brown with a lacy, light tan head. Aroma of roasted malts, some chocolate, coffee, a little smokiness, and some floral hops. Flavor the same, with a little soy sauce on the finish. Average to silky texture. Not a bad beer.

Sample at Hale’s in Seattle. Brownish-black pour with a medium off-white head that recedes steadily. Rings of lacing. Aroma of roasted malt and chocolate. Light body with flavors of roast malt, caramel and a touch of piney hops. The finish is sweet with a malty aftertaste. Decent overall.

Pours opaque black with a tall tan head. The aroma is smoky with raisins and cocoa. The flavor has a off putting burnt note right at the start. Roasty and bitter. I’ll pass on the roasty burnt malts in this one. I prefer a sweeter, smoother style of Porter.

Dark pour, smells like a hobos butthole but tastes better. Decent porter flavor but overly carbonated. Sweet almost raisin aftertaste

Bomber into glass..weird rotten raisen aroma.. taste is coffee prune.. tons if carbonation..good
