Flying Dog Road Dog Scottish Porter

Bottle. Dark brown colour with a small off white head. A light porter with taste of licorice and chocolate. A bit watery.

Dark brown. Leathery liquorice aroma. Taste is sweet and malty with a little ash and a gentle bitter chocolate finish. Fair enough, though it does not quite tick every porter box.

pour was light brown,with a redish hue.aromas of coffee and malted barleys, taste of coffee,chocolate and caramal, the beer was thin an and light but drinkable

Dark mahogany with a small, bubbly white head. Watery, grainy nose of roasted malt, reminiscient of swill fests. Flavor is a little better with more roasted malt, caramel, some medicine. Palate is sharp and stinging, rather odd when coupled with the lingering bitter roast. Not very impressed.

Sampled at EBF2008. Pours a dark brown beer with an offwhite head. The aroma is sweetness and raisin. The flavor is roasted and sweetness. The mouthfeel leaves some hops, and the beer is just above average.

Draught at EBF 2008. Pours a medium to dark brown with reddish highlights. Aroma is full and malty with aromas of chocolate and vanilla. Slightly watery bitter chocolate flavor.

Bottle.Dark ruby looking pour,with a thin dark tan head. Aroma of chocolate coffee and something burnt . Flavor is malty,earthy,and smokey with a slight dry alcohol finish. Thin watery mouthfeel. This was sort of an odd offering,Drinkable but most likely will not buy again.

Really pissed off that they didn’t package this in my variety pack after its picture is clearly on the box, so it gets a failure across the board from me. This isn’t the first time that Flying Dog has screwed me on a variety pack, either- I got two tripels and no barleywines in a variety four-pack a few months ago. Thanks for the false advertising, assholes!
