honey porter, eh? weak aroma of honey and dry grains, and despite an overall balanced flavor it just doesn’t quite live up to any expectations. certainly nothing wrong with this beer (and it’s definitely quaffable) but clearly not an award-winner.

Aug 21, 2008 bottled sample from the sampler pack. Nice tasting. Well carbonated. Good malt taste. Enjoyed this one

Aug 17, 2008 Nice dark brown pour. Aroma was pretty much just honey. Flavor was a nice coffee honey mix. Smooth medium bodied beer with a slight bitter finish at the end. My biggest complaint with this beer is it actually seemed to get worse as it warmed up a bit.

Aug 11, 2008 Drinkable but uneventful I don’t see myself revisiting this. Very similar to Sam Adams’ Brown Ale.

Aug 10, 2008 12oz bottle: Pours a light black color with an off-white head. Nice ruby glow against the light which also reveals some particles. Sweet smell evident before even putting my nose in the glass. Honey roasted malty aroma. Nice initial sweet roasted malt taste, hints of honey and chocolate. Bitter at the end with a bit of a strange aftertaste. Nice different offering.

Aug 4, 2008 Brown/black pour. A fairly standard porter with a little honey near and at the finish. A solid medium body. The hops help finish it a bit bitter and clean. Once again not bad for being mass produced. I think some of these ratings are low just because of that fact.
