[Colorado Road Trip – 2006] Dark in Color with a light porter aroma this had a nice flavor but was missing that umph that would make it a good porter almost felt like it was watered down. Needs ore grains and better storage.

On tap at Groggs brewpub in Helper, Utah. My 600th rating, and why not choose a rare and local Utah beer. Pours a dark brown body with a nice thick beige head. The aroma was full of roasted chocolate and some coffee. The taste was quite nice; a good chocolate presence, some coffee, a bit of dark fruits, and a light malt that was too sweet for this beer. But overall, I enjoyed this one. They must have changed the brew significantly.

More milky and putrid maple/licorice aroma... really bad stuff here. Difficult to drink... how can they brew it this bad? No flavors whatsoever resembling a porter, buttery maple and astringent licrorice... ugh. Nose of sweaty boot.
