On tap at the brewpub while my wife was at a conference. Dark brown to black pour with red highlights. Tan ring. Nose is great. Lots of chocolate. Taste is smooth milky chocolate with a bit of molasses and alcohol. Velvety smooth. Best of the six I’d tasted up to that point.

Part of sample tray at the brewery. Was more impressed with the place than the beer. Average Porter

On draft at brewery, consumed 01/21/08. Very dark brown with deep ruby highlights. Good head retention and active carbonation throughout. Aroma of roasted chocolate/coffee. Slightly astringent. Bitter chocolate flavor from roasted malts. Vague nut flavor as well. Maybe sour cherry in there, too? Only a very thin bitterness on finish. Not bad.
