Big bottle. Dark brown, almost black w/ tall, rocky brown foam. Roasty, chocolaty aroma w/ a slight vinous sourness & notes of coffee & plums. Full-bodied & chewy. Roasty, malty, dry, dried fruit, & zesty, earthy hops. Finish is sweet & slightly sour. Bit too carbonated and watery. Sub par porter.

550ml bottle. Pours a dark brown with a decent tan head that lasts. Taste is of hops, roasted malts, chocolate and some smoke. A little sweet. Aroma is much the same. A well rounded beer that is almost too easy to drink. I wish I could get this beer more often, because it is a real treat to have.

(Bottle). Roasty sweet malt aroma, with some coffee. Nearly black in color, and a substantial light tan head. Flavor is sweet and tangy, heavy malt, medium body. Lingering roasty finish.

Pours a rather dark brown. Tastes of roasted malts with some minimal hints of coffee. Head is rather thick and laces the glass well. Overall, it’s a pretty good porter, though nothing very outstandish about it either.

I ordered a bottle of this last night at a restaurant and for some reason it was served with a pilsner glass. Dark brown body that has a glimmer of red, creamy tan head. Smells sweetly of dark fruit roasted grains. Taste was very full and well rounded, slight bitterness, some raisin, plum, chocolate, and caramel. Yummy. Mouthfeel was full and smooth. Very good.
