Cola brown with a thin quick clearing head, quite high carbonation. The initial aroma is some roast and chocolate, the flavour is pretty much the same. The body is thin. Fairly one dimensional and not as id hoped.

3.2 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 4/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 5/5 OVERALL 12/20
The aroma is reminiscent of roasted malts, earth, and vanilla, which is pleasing to the nose, and the appearance of this beer fuses a very dark brown color with a small tan head that fades quickly yet leaves a persistent ring. The taste is slightly sweet, slightly sour, and a touch bitter, which doesn’t really meet the expectations I had for this porter (due to the 5 types of malts advertised on the bottle), but the palate is great as a result of the medium body, slick texture, soft carbonation, and an abrupt finish.
