So far this is my Favorite porter. Dark ruby-black, hints of coffee, full bodied and oh soooo smooth. This is in my top ten of beers.

Good porters are hard to find and this is a good porter and frankly way underrated. Has a subtle malt and chocolate aroma with a nice chocolate flavor with a mild smokiness. Robust but yet easy drinking. Creamy soft mouthfeel. Well done.

Very smooth and malty, great coffee taste to it. Made me go right out and try and brew a similar taste since I cannot buy this anywhere near me.

This one is right there with Anchor. The six-pack version is just as good as the keg version. Try it, you’ll like it.
