Lingering tan head on a dark brown pour. Some reddish highlights and spotty lacing. Aromas of toffee, slight earthiness, roasted malts and coffee, some milk chocolate. Med body with crisp carb. Fairly smooth and creamy(more so on tap). Balanced finish. Flavor of raosted coffee and milk chocolate start off w/ coffee bitterness and an herbal sweetness that reminds me a bit of Jaegarmeister. Excellent porter.

What a nice pint - great label, deep dark brew. Distinct bittersweet chocolate character - a little sweeter that what I was expecting from a porter. Roasty, burnt sugars, bittering was mostly from roast and not hops. Slick mouthfeel. Quite good. Thanks to LuckyDog for supporting my rating habit!

Roast and malt notes with a light blend of coffee. Deep brown to black with a thick tan head. Balanced between roast and hop bitterness with an underlying malt sweetness. Medium to medium full bodied with a robust roasty finish.

12 oz bottle. Poured a medium-dark brown color with a tan head. Aroma was dark, slightly roasted malts, caramel notes, coffee, dried fruits. Flavor was light coffee characters, caramel, roasted notes. Pretty flavorful and enjoyable.

Thanks Frank for the bottle! Dark brown appearance. Aroma of chocolate and roast. Flavor is more of the same. Very balanced. Finishes bone try. Very nice!
