Commercial Description:
Pipeline Porter is smooth and dark with a distinctive roasty aroma and earthy complexity from its diverse blends of premium malted barley. This celebration of malt unites with freshly roasted 100% Kona coffee grown at Cornwell Estate on Hawaii’s Big Island, lending a unique roasted aroma and flavor. A delicate blend of hops rounds out this palate-pleasing brew.

12oz bottle. Deep black color with a minimal head. Smooth and creamy Porter, with mild coffee notes. Very delicate and well balanced. Somewhat dry finish, very little hop character. Quite an enjoyable, middle-of-the-road Porter.

Bottle... Poured black with a light brown head. Smoked aroma with some mocha. Unabrasive palate that was easy to drink, smoked coffee flavors with butter malt. Great tasting beer.

Wow, I love this. If a beer’s gonna have coffee in it then it might as well go head on and be loaded with it. This has that. Really fresh tasting too. I’m not coffee person but I love coffee flavor in my beer. Only complaint is that the palate is a bit weak; could stand to be a bit fuller/creamier.

This has one of the best coffee aromas of any beer I have had. That is the entire aroma, pure coffee. The flavor is light, but quite pleasing, again dominated by coffee and a light sweetness.
