FROTHINGSLOSH (1448), GREENSBURG, Pennsylvania, USA Feb 7, 2008 Sampled on draft at the Monroeville PA location this beer poured a black color with a medium sized brown head. The aroma was roasty malts and a hint of coffee. The flavor was sweet chocolate, cream and light toasted malt with a long silky chocolate finish. The mouthfeel was silky smooth. ldcuervo (2), USA does not count Feb 6, 2008 This was a knockout. Served huge head. Taste roasted and choc aromas .... delivered creamy. After taste a bit bitter but choc lingered. Nice consistency. muzzlehatch (4424), Burlington, Vermont, USA May 30, 2003 At the JH in Lake Grove NY. This was the "Augustus Gloop" Porter at this location; clever name is the best thing going, unfortunately. VERY sweet & chocolaty, just some hints of roastiness, very simple, just too much, and I'm a sugar-holic with dark beers. Oh well. harlequinn (2746), Tacoma, Washington, USA Jan 24, 2003 MMMM, this one is really yummy. A huge frothy head, and immediately you taste a very chocolate malt flavor. This is a great desert beer. Not something I could really sit down and drink more than one of. But do not get me wrong this one is extremely yummy, right down to the smoothest finish, I have had in a long time. obxdude10 (1387), Reading, Pennsylvania, USA Apr 13, 2002 Nice black color, kept a great creamy & foamy head, you can definitely taste the chocolate tones in the beer, very very smooth
