Oct 30, 2009 On tap @ Selins Grove. Dark brown with a dense tan head, looks almost like a nitro head. Aroma of chocolate, caramel and roasted malt. Bittersweet chocolate sweetness with a roasty bitterness and a touch of hop. Medium to full body with a creamy mouth feel and a slightly dry finish. Well done.

May 3, 2009 On tap at the Selins Grove brew pub. Poured a kind of thin looking (for a porter) cola ruby color. Aroma was roasted malt and some coffee bitterness. Flavor was a little on the butter end with some nice roast, but overall a little thin. Decent porter though.

Apr 21, 2009 Sampled on draft at the brewery this beer poured a bright red-brown color with a trace of a tan head. The aroma was bitter and roasty with notes of coffee. The flavor was bitter, roasty and grainy with a hint of caramel and coffee. The finish was long, bitter and roasty. Ok.

Mar 2, 2009 Draught at the brewpub. Pours ruby-hued brown with nice khaki head. The aroma is ashy with notes of chocolate and tobacco, some black pepper, and earth. The flavor is pepper and ash with some burnt sourness. Hints of coffee grounds pop up here and there. There’s a bit of earthy hop bitterness in the finish. Interesting interpretation, but not one I care for.
