shp555 (1347), lilburn, Georgia, USA May 10, 2008 Pours a dark brown color with a brown head. Aroma is nutty, toasty, roast, coffee, and some spicy hops. Flavor is malty, roast, nutty, coffee, and a bitter spicy finish.
DuffMan (1890), Calgary, Alberta, Canada Jul 22, 2008 deep dark brown, modest light brown head. Huge aromas of whole coffee bean, medium roast (i.e. slight vegetal character, not entirely oily roast). Coffee dominated palate, with some sweet chocolate as well. Medium-bodied, dry finish. I love a good coffee porter, and this hits it near-perfectly. MrBendo (976), Swedesboro, New Jersey, USA Jul 14, 2008 Thanks to FlacoAlto and BeerLando, who both sent me a bonus bottle of this. Pours deep brown with a medium head. Aroma of coffee and sweet, roasted malts. Some chocolate and dusty yeast. Mostly sweet taste. Medium-light body. ambroze (21), Old Hickory, Tennessee, USA Jul 12, 2008 My wife and I enjoyed this beer at the Kona brewery and fell in love with it.
It was a great taste with a great aroma. Nice balance of coffee and porter.
Very tasteful. We miss it dearly living in TN. Miver (299), WillowStreet, Pennsylvania, USA Jul 12, 2008 12 oz bottle. Poured dark brownish black wtih a small tan head. Aroma of coffee (not very roasty) and chocolate. Tastes of smooth coffee, sweet chocolate, and creamy vanilla. I like a coffee porter to have more aroma and taste of coffee then what this offered. Other then that, not bad. carruthm (316), USA Jul 10, 2008 light black or dark dark brown with a thin lacy head. dark cocoa/coffee aroma and a flavor that’s mostly coffee. Lots of coffee. Can’t drink many of these but a great one-off.
