Heavy malt notes of toasted, cereal, and mild coffee, moderate hop and yeast aromas of herbs and earth, with a hint of vanilla. Head is small, frothy, off-white, with fair lacing and is almost fully diminishing. Color is clear brown. Flavor is moderately sweet and acidic to start and finishes moderately acidic and sour.

Bold aromas from this Porter, but a blah finish in both flavor and feel knocks it down a bit. 00cobraR (1085), Greensboro, North Carolina, USA Apr 19, 2009 Pours out a dark brown color with a small tan head. aroma has malts, coffee, and a small amount of sweetness. flavor was similar with a slight amount of bitterness in the finish. nick76 (2530), Tampa, Florida, USA Apr 8, 2009 The aroma is right for a porter with toasted malt, coffee, and hops.
