Brown color -- flat and rich. Malty sweet, mildly fruity aroma. Mild, smooth, rich, balanced flavor. The flavor is lovely, as is the mouth feel. Sweetly rich with a smoky background. Very good.

Bomber poured a clear dark brown with a small lasting brown head. Aromas of dark chocolate, coffee, roastiness and light vanilla. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of coffee, bitter chocolate, roasted malt and a hint of vanilla with a smooth roasty finish.

On tap. Aroma and flavor of roasted malt and bitter coffee. Some sweetness in the mix. Pretty solid porter.

Little bit of chocolate in the taste. Not heavy. Fairly good porter with lots of flavor.

Most impressive Marin, even more so than White Knuckle. Had this on tap at Hotel Monaco in SF and out of a bottle from Whole Foods Pasadena, CA. Pours a dark rootbeer brown, big puffy head at first that completely subsides. Aromas of roasted coffee, and flavors of coffee, spice and a tad bit of chocolate. Rich but not too thick, highly highly drinkable.
