22 oz. bottle. The pour is a translucent copper with a huge fluffy beige head. The aroma is apricots, floral hops, dates, and a little caramel. The flavor is sweet up front, get a little bitter, and finishes bitter and a little sour. The palate is medium wieght, sticky and very astringent. Overall, a subtle and complex beer. Not bad.

Amber with white lacing; cereal on nose with a little cocoa; medium-bodied palate with light hops, well-balanced with malt, though a touch on the sweet side. Notes of candied fruit and coco on the palate.

Upon opening the bottle it gushed and exploded all over me right after I got out of the shower. Not cool. Copper pour. Weak aroma. Unpleasant sour taste. Only reason I drank it was I needed to take the edge off being so pissed that this crumby beer spewed all over me and the carpet.

A nice malty flavor fades into a too-thin body, leaving a sweet-and-fizzy combination that is too evocative of cola for my tastes.

Pours copper into the glass, with a sudsy white head that fully diminishes to trace lace. The nose has some malt and grassiness. The flavors are similar, caramel malt with some doughy notes, and corn attached to a light grassy finish. The palate is smooth with a medium body. This certainly isn’t my favorite French Broad offering, and a very middle-of-the-road "take it or leave it" brew.
2.3 AROMA 4/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 9/20 PorterPounder (3944) - Tallahassee, Florida, USA - APR 11, 2010
Savannah, Ga - Habersham Beverage Warehouse - 22 oz bottle. Medium copper pour, nice thick snow white head. Aroma has some spearmint notes but is overridden somewhat by a bit of some phenols. Flavor has the same phenolic sense to it - pick up some nuttiness and a bit of mint through the phenolic funk. Mouthfeel is smooth. Notice that others have commented on their quality control problems - hope they are not all like this - picked up a handful of bombers from them on a trip to Savannah.
