This is a very good beer. I found it to be a bit unique as I’ve never tasted anything quite like it before. A great porter with a definate mocha taste and smell.

Rogue Mocha Porter is a rich dark brown ale with a fluffy, light caramel colored head. The aroma is of sweet caramel, coffee, chocolate, brown sugar and maybe vanilla. It is full bodied and fluffy; very smooth with a clean finish. The flavor is well balanced with notes of coffee, licorice or fennel, and chocolate. There is a short aftertaste of licorice. Not as ’mocha’ as I expected, but an excellent porter-- one that I will buy again!

Bottle 330ml. Great, tasty beer. Aromas of apple, coffee, and vanilla. Taste is sweet, with bitter notes, and good duration. Palate is velvety, with a medium body. Black, with a frothy and lasting head.

In bottiglia al 4:20 di Roma. Colore marrone scuro quasi nero, schiuma beige, cremosa. Al naso caffè, vaniglia, malti tostati. Al palato tostato, caffè, vaniglia e cacao, finale più dolce di quanto mi aspettassi. Ottima!

A very good porter. I don’t get as much of the Mocha flavor as the name would imply. Great aroma - smells rich and sweet. This is a great, drinkable porter.

Poured jet black from a bottle. Nice head at first but disappeared too quickly. Smells like a great cup of coffee. And tastes pretty much the same. Be better if there was a little more chocolate in the taste but its a great porter. One if my favorites. Wonderful hop finish. Love this one. Rogue rules!

Deep brown with a mocha color head. Not too carbonated. A little light in the mouth. Very sweet. Lots of coffee and chocolate going on. Smooth. A pleasure to drink. Highly recommended.

One of my favorite porters. Smooth beer with just enough mocha to be quality and still taste like beer. Rogue is gooooood beer.

lagermonkey (725) - Marietta, Georgia, USA - MAY 10, 2005
Pours a dark, dark opaque brown with a creamy 1/4 inch tan head. Very lacy. Smells of roasted chocolate and coffee. Taste is smoky chocolate malt blended nicely with coffee flavors. Nice coffee bitterness. Very well balanced. Full bodied and bitter coffee aftertaste. Very drinkable. When you see the words "Mocha Porter", this beer delivers all the things you would want from a beer with that name.

Full Bodied. Cool, creamy flavor and great after-taste. One of Rogue’s best!
