Silver Moon Snake Bite Porter

Sampled draught at Silver Moon Brewing, Bend
Black color with lots of lacing and nice creamy head. Nose of light fruit and roast. Smoky mocha flavor with lots of astringency, which doesn’t fit too much into porters. Finishes sharp and tangy.

Draft @ the brewpub. Pours a black color with a longlasting tan head. Has a roasted malty chocolate and coffee aroma. Roasted malty chocolate and coffee flavor. Has a roasted malty chocolate finish.

22. Thanks, BVC! Jet black. Very scant gray rim. Huge, gorgeous coffee nose. Thin, watery body. Way too light. Tastes good--lots of coffee with a little sweet in there. But just too watery.

Bottle shared by bvc. Smells pretty roasty with light mocha sweetness. Really a lot of coffee actually. Pours black with a thin tan head. Flavors of coffee, roasted malt, and a hint of chocolate. A little dry roast in the finish, but this one was almost watery. Really thin. Nice aromas and flavors though.

Black with a creamy tan head.Light dry roasted nose.More of the same in the flavor ending in a nice smoky finish.

On tap at Bailey’s in Portland, which is a pretty cool place. Black to dark brown in color. Aroma was roasted, a bit meaty and oaty. Flavor was very thin and watery. Roasted malt with some chocolate and something akin to tobacco. Just ok.

Dark reddish brown, light tan head. Aroma is light chocolate and coffee with caramel. Medium to light body, quite drinkable. The best they had.
