Sample from growler at Ale Wine & Spirits in Powell on 04/05/2012. The beer is a dark brown color with a medium thin light beige head that diminishes quickly to an outer ring. Spotty lacing. The aroma consists of roasted malt and coffee. Medium body with a roasty character of malt and coffee. Slight hops in the background. The finish is sweet with a short malt aftertaste. Decent overall.

Sampler Tray @Blue Star, Seattle. Dark brown body. Bitter chocolate aroma. Strong and bitter taste: burnt coffee and roasted almonds. It goes perfect with sweet chocolate cake, but it’s not a beer you drink pints of or enjoy by itself, really... (19.Dec 2011 in the pleasant company of Stefan)

16 oz. draft at the Porch- Pours black with reddish hints at the bottom of the glass, aroma is chocolate malt, very porteresque. The flavor is a very strong porter, not in alcohol, but flavor. Roasted chocolate malt up the ass. Palate is creamy mouthfeel, not the best by any means, but a good example of the style.

On tap at The Porch in Hayden, ID. Aroma of toasted marshmallows, kind of English. Pours black with a whitish-beige head and creamy lace. Taste is initially sweet, turns bitter, then leaves a sweet and sour finish. Nice roasted flavor. Medium to low carbonation and a creamy mouthfeel. Medium body. Nice porter.
