3.7 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 8/10 PALATE 4/5 OVERALL 15/20
On tap at brewery: Smooth and weighty on the tongue. Richly malted and chewy-sweet. Lactic-like sweetness with hints of creamed coffee and milk chocolate. Softly roasted. Moderate hops provided a balanced bitterness without overpowering the malt side. Tasty porter, albeit on the sweet side ... I could only drink one.
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 15/20
(22oz bottle) Purchased at the brewpub in Twisp for an insanely cheap $3.70 plus taxes. Pours a lasting thin, beige grey head atop an opaque body. Nose is surprisingly fruity and hoppy with some buried coffee notes. Flavour is sweet with a front of toasted malt and some undertones of cherry wood and cold coffee. Good stuff. Really impressed with this brewpub.
3.1 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 13/20
Black with very little head. Very light roasted porter...good session beer, but not worth trying really.
3.3 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 6/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
Black colour. Chocolatey, lightly coffeeish aroma with background wood and nuts. Light body does get a little thin and pronounced raw coffee bean notes show through. Finishes a bit creamy. Not bad, but it doesn’t finish all that well.
