Commercial Description:
London Porter- This traditional English-style offering is brewed with an abundance of , combined with roasted and crystal malts to produce a chocolaty-sweet, full-bodied brew with a creamy head. Gently hopped to finish it off, a variety of noble hops are used, lending a moderate bitterness and pleasant, mild aroma.

A beautiful black coloring with a tan head. The aroma showed a lot of bittersweet chocolate, while the flavor was all coffee. This beer had a great finish and definately proved to be my favorite.

Tap at the brewpub. Brown with a diminishing head. Ok. Vanilla porter was much better. Nice roasty aroma. Malty. Full bodied. Enjoyable.

Tap at the brewpub. Brown with a diminishing tan head. Roasty, fruity aroma. Roasty carmel flavor, and a slight tart finish.This is a basic average porter, and not quite as bad as what the previous rater says.

I had to bump up the overall impression cause I love this place. Unfortunately, I did not love this beer. Newly brewed in July, this is a very harsh and painful to drink porter. Now I know what Palate actually means. It felt too astringent and painful in the mouth to enjoy. If given the option, try their sully oatmeal stout instead. Steer clear.
