Commercial Description:
A rich, creamy ale infused with a generous amount of coffee, the Porter was developed by Mountain Sun brewers weary of drinking Stout for breakfast. The result is an ale where coffee aromas mingle perfectly with a roasted barley, hop finish. A unique treat including as thick a head as you will ever get on a latte.

Sampled at the brewhouse. Very well flavored brew with a very coffee base and nice porter finish. Pours very dark and has high quantity of malt. Well done.

Deep dark brown pour, almost black, with some light ruby highlights A tiny ring of bubbly tan foam rises to the occassion. Sweet roasted coffee that has that just finished brewing aroma. Rich, creamy and malty with a bitter chocolate flavor that dominates with a dry bitterness coming through in the finish. Coffee comes through more in the nose than on the palate, but still is a really easy drinking porter.

On tap at Vine St. Nice beer: poured dark black with a small tan head. A dark maltish and coffee aroma. Heavy carbonation and full taste with just enough coffee taste. I thought this tasted great and was balanced perfectly (right amount of hops) especially if you like both coffee and beer.

On Tap: Pours a dark black color with a tan head. Tastes of coffee beans and roast. Had it on Nitro.

Had this at their new Vine Street Pub. Dark black beer with a thin brown head. Nice coffee flavor, not overwhelming. Smooth, doesn’t have that sourness that many coffee beers have. Fairly dry. Pleasant, but not fantastic.
