Midnight Sun Arctic Rhino Coffee Porter

Brewed by Midnight Sun Brewing Company
Style: Porter
Anchorage, Alaska USA

Its such a pleasure to be able to drink this anytime that I want. I love this beer, and had wanted to try it for a long time, but it was only available in Alaska. Rich and roasted nose, with a bit of burnt coffee notes. The palate has a nice bit of chocolate cocoa dustiness with you guess it that fresh brewed coffee finish, rich and creamy. Robust indeed.

smells of coffee, taste is sweet chocolate, then roasted coffee and malts. gets kind of sour at the end (not in a good way)

Very dark brown. Extra coffee nose...some earthy free trade single estate microroaster shit. Thick, sugary body...Cuban coffee at the casa particular. Sweet, rich coffee throughout....where’s the porter? Nutty accent in the finish.

bottle from bottletrek (thanks to analisa and the gang).... pours a dark cola brown with reddish brown edges which is then topped off with a thin soapy light brown head that forms more so towards the side of the glass....aroma of chocolate, more so cocoa, and a strong roasted coffee component which is quite nice especially if having in the morning!..... the flavors, though, don’t live up to snuff. more roasted/sour coffee and lively carbonation which took away from it. mouthfeel was also a little too thin as well.....i think this one reminded me a little of peche mortel for some reason.

poured black with a good head and lacing. Aroma and flavor of roast coffee, rich malts with a semi-sweet finish. Not bad.

3rd Bday beer shared by emacgee. Thanks Ethan! Nose of roasted malt, wet coffee grounds, and vanilla. Flavor is equally roasty with more coffee and rich porter-like flavors. Not a huge fan of coffee beers, but I found this one to be quite enjoyable like many of the MS products I have had the pleasure of consuming,

Bomber poured a clear dark brown with red highlights and a lasting tan head. Aromas of coffee, milk chocolate, vanilla and roasted malt. Palate was medium bodied and smooth. Flavors of coffee, dark chocolate, roasted malt and light vanilla with a smooth lingering lightly bitter finish.

Bomber from Liquid Solutions. It smells like good coffee. Dark brown color with ruby hilites. A tan head that quickly ringed. A bit thin in body with fizzy/creamy carbonation. Flavor is coffee, maybe with a touch of chocolate, but it’s really all about coffee. The finish is dry and coffee. Almost espresso. Impressive. Glad I tried it.
