Pours dark brown with a decent creamy tan head. A lot of lacing. I got a light coffee nutty palate from it. Not as creamy as i expected from the mouthfeel.

0.355l bottle from myBrewtap. Pours a clear dark brown body with a medium sized ashy head that’s lacing nicely down the glass. Lots of coffee in the aroma. Roasted malts and sweet milk chocolate as wel. Really nice and powerful aroma - and that’s just what I wanted right now. The carbonation is quite average and it has a light oily mouthfeel. Not as rich and powerful in the flavor, but still quite on the "what-I-like-side’. Lots of sweet milk chocolate, roasted malts, cold coffee and a faint acidic hint. Ends quite quickly. 14.01.2012

Bottle - pours a deep dark brown with a light tan head and a LOT of lacing. Has light coffee aroma and malty taste. A little thin on the mouthfeel but overall pretty good.

Pours dark dark reddish brown with a small tan head. Smells chocolately and tastes the same. Just a tad watery on the palate...but still very good.

Good smooth porter. The nose is of roast malt and caramel, just a touch of coffee. The beer is a pretty black with a big tan head. The taste is of roast malt and coffee. The body is thick to medium, very smooth. Great beer.

12oz bottle in a shaker. Pours dark brown with a lacy, light tan head. Aroma of some roasted and chocolate malts and some light Sierra Nevada hops. Flavor about the same, with lots of malts on the finish. Average texture. A pretty good beer.

Medium bodied, malty, smooth, nutty. It’s a easy-going traditional porter. Nothing fancy but very drinkable. Sierra Nevada confirms my confidence in their ability to brew good stuff on a widespread basis.

Quite nice, inviting coffee & chocolate nose, roasty, brown sugar.. creamy mouthfeel, medium body, lots of coffee, sweet, bit of a metallic note on the finish is a little bothersome, but tasty; solid.
