Nate (2291), Indiana, Pennsylvania, USA Mar 15, 2007 On tap at the brewery. Dusty earthy malt, dry roasted grains and bitter coffee grounds. Light hoppiness with licorice and tobacco, raisin. Dark brown reddish clear with off-white lacing head. Medium heavy body with light carbonation. Starts sweet with malty grains, raisins, coffee and licorice. Bitter chocolate. Mild bitterness and coffee grounds. Toasted or slightly burnt grains. Neutral fruit finish. Tongue-coating sweetness with light coffee bitter after.
fredandboboflo (722), East Setauket, New York, USA Oct 31, 2008 Tap. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malt, touch of prune. Flavor of coffee grindings, roasted malt, quite sweet, some earth, some milky chocolate, but very faint on these last two notes. Light bodied and a touch astringent. Ok. LilBeerDoctor (733), East Setauket, New York, USA Oct 27, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. Pours black with a rapidly fading head. Aroma of chalky roasted malt and a hint of chocolate. Flavor of raisins and weak sweet roasted malt. Not bad flavored, but weak-bodied. If improved, this could definitely be a really good porter. hopdog (4779), Lansdale, Pennsylvania, USA Oct 26, 2008 On tap at the Selins Grove Brew Pub. Poured a deeper brown with a smaller sized off white head. Aromas of chocolate, roast, and some caramel. Tastes of roast, chocolate, light coffee, and grainy. stangger (145), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA Sep 15, 2008 On tap at Selin’s Grove brewpub. Dark, thick, and chocolatey, but with a bit too much of an alcohol flavor for my liking. Pwn3d (630), NYC, New York, USA Jun 1, 2008 On tap at the brewpub. An awesome porter. Upfront not much direct flavor but it comes on heavy towards the finish. Toasted grains, molasses, and perhaps some liquorice notes.
