Commercial Description:
This lip-smacking dark ale is mellow and malty. The aroma is reminiscent of bittersweet dark chocolate and the caramel and roast malt flavors are exceptionally smooth. Medium bodied, with a slightly sweet edge but a dry finish.

On tap. Beautiful black pour, when held to light it appeared a very opague, ruby color. Thin, lacy tan head. Smelled of chocalte, roasted malts, and a slight hint of vanilla. Tasted as good as it smelled. Full body, light apparent hop flavoring, big chocolaty flavor with hints of roasted malt. A very good brew.

Bottle pours dark brown, almost black, small tannish film for a head, with so-so lacing.   Aroma of roasted malts & cocoa.   Heavily roasted malts and a slight hop bitterness on the tongue.   Minor cocoa, or unsweetened chocolate as well.   Medium body & mouthfeel.   Slightly dry on the finish, with a decent chocolately roasted malt flavor.   Not bad...

Bottle Pours very dark chocolatey brown with a very hefty tan head and decent lacing. Aroma seems a bit light for the style. Hazelnut, coffee and dark roast. Subtle though. Flavor is more coffee-ish and smokey/burnt. Feel is a bit thin and the aftertaste has a nice sharp bite that lingers. Not bad, but was hoping for more.

Bottle. Nice black colour, coffee tan head. Lacing is not as thick as I’d like for a porter. Very fruity on the nose, nice roasted malts and barley smell. Taste is very smooth, roasts and chocolates dominate, but hops/fruits are also very present. Finishs very smooth. Good brew.

This is a decent porter but nothing real special. The IPA that they make is pretty darn good, but you can’t go too wrong with this porter

Light but Smooth aroma. Seems thin at room temperature, but has a very good chocolate aftertaste. The head is bubbley and fizzy. Overall, very smooth and full flavor.

Solid black color with a long lasting dark tanned head. A mix of aromas from sugary sweetness to roasted malt, and coffee. Smooth, maybe even a slight creaminess to it's texture. Sweet upfront, rich coffee flavors, with lots of roasted malt bitterness in the finish.
