Nice dark brown with a tan head. Aromas of rich malts with dark, bitter sweet chocolate and a hint of coffee. The flavor is of burnt coffee, bittersweet chocolate.

Tap @ The Silver Dollar in Cody, WY. Pours a dark brown with a large tan head. Nose is a mild blend of roast and coffee before a more intense flavor. Sweet and chocolatey, light roasty notes. Smooth, light bitters in the trailer. Easily the best of the three Red Lodge brews I had in Cody.

Sampled on draught at Sam’s Tap Room, next to the brewpub in Red Lodge, Montana. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a thick tan head that slowly dissolves to a tan ring and very attractive lacing. Aroma of toasted dark chocolate malt, dried dark pitted fruits, a touch of molasses and some roasted coffee. Taste is smooth, medium bodied, with a sweet dark chocolate and ripe plum flavor. Finish has a spicey hoppy texture and taste with a long lasting roasted chocolate aftertaste. Quite pleasing porter to reward after traveling the Bear Tooth Pass Highway (US 212).

On tap at Sam’s Tap Room adjacent to the microbrewery. Pours opaque, with a medium body and full mouthfeel. A "spicy" dark malt flavor with a late dry finish.

Dark brown pour with brownish head. Hints of roasted coffee with a touch of chocolate. Flavor is much the same, with a little dried fruit and finish is a light espresso. Medium body.

(draft) Clear brown-black body with beige head. Aroma is medium sweet, chocolate, roast, coffee. Taste is medium sweet, chocolate, roast, some plum, light coffee. Smooth light-medium body. Nice take on the style, and my favorite from the brewery.
