There is a hint of coffee in the aroma which is not very strong. The head is think, but not abundant. It has a dark brown color with a tinge of red through the light. Fairly favorable. A decent porter.

3.6 AROMA 6/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 14/20
Pours a dark brown with 2 finger foam head that leaves behind some lacing as it recedes. Even though it is dark brown, it is still somewhat translucent, especially at the bottom of the glass. Not too much of a nose - some malt. Taste if some black licorice, coffee and roasted malt. Some bitterness on the finish which is nice. Overall, easy to drink and good.

11.2 oz bottle. Pours dark brown with reddish highlights; has a medium beige head that collapses into a ring of ugly big-bubbly foam way too quick. Aroma is doughy bread , toasted marshmallow, vanilla. Taste is sweet with a hint of bitterness in the finish. Tastes English. Flavors of minerals, toast, chocolate milk. Body is medium to thin, mouthfeel oily, carbonation average. I haven’t had this in quite a few years. I’m glad I got to try it again.

Original Flag Porter has a medium, soapy, beige head, a very dark brown appearance, with lighter brown highlights, some streaming bubbles, and bubbles stuck to the glass, and a small amount of thin lacing left behind. The aroma is of sweet brown bread, roasted malt, and light cream. Taste is of the same, with faint bitterness and bread crust. Mouthfeel is light and rather watery, and Original Flag Porter finishes mostly dry, soft, refreshing, and ultra drinkable. Overall, this is a really nice thing to check out. Get some! RJT

Pours a dark burnt brown with a small tan head with light lacing. Aroma is of dark roasted caramel malt with some espresso beans. Taste of dark roasted caramel malt lightly burnt espresso and malt give it a mild bitter flavor. Palate is a medium to full body, slightly creamy and smooth texture with mild carbonation. Finishes with a roasted slightly burnt dark caramel malt, some espresso, mild bitterness for balance. Overall a good, flavorful and solid porter.
