Commercial Description:
Cask; Regular. Also available brewery conditioned and cold filtered in 500ml bottles.
This fine beer is a blend of a mature old ale with a younger light beer - just as a true Porter should be. The marriage produces an extremely characterful brew which is dark in colour and complex in taste.

Pours with a rich mahogony body and minmal head. Intoxicating aromas, cna detect hints of Molasses, and coffee. Rich and Refreshing.

Bottle. Poured dark brown color with an average frothy light brown head that lasted and produced good lacing. Moderatre burnt malt and coffee aroma. Medium to full body with a smooth texture. Medium balanced roasted flavor with a smooth roasted finish of moderate duration.

Pours a thin brown color with a medium tan head. Smells of yeast and sweet chocolate malt. Flavor is light on the palate with a roasted malt presence in the backend giving some bitterness. Seems like a middle of the road brewpub porter.

500 ml flask shaped bottle poured a clear dark reddish brown with a dissapating amber head. Aromas of bitter chocolate, mocha and some roastiness. Palate was light bodied and crisp. Flavors of bitter chocolate, roasted malt and some charcoal with a smooth slightly bitter finish.

Poured from bottle - and that’s an intimidating bottle! This is quite a porter. Great roasty smell that is matched in the flavor. Has that kinda oily, porter feel to it. Flavor intensifies as you drink. Finished just as nice as it started.

Good Porter! Poured very dark with no head. If fact I thought the bottle was flat. But upon tasting discovered that it had a very good flavor. Chocolate, carmel, coffee, and dark malt flavors all came through with a good finish at the end. I also like the bottles design and color. I enjoyed this beer with some very good Bison. To me a first rate Porter.

Bottled. Dark and impenetrable mahogany color, nearly black one. Compact hazel foam, medium adhesion and duration. Rather light scent with light notes of braced caramel, dry/thirsty wood and ash. Decidedly more pleasant taste with good fizz, sturdy and balanced body. Notes of bitter chocolate, coffee, resin, dry wood and roast cereals. Bitter end with good alcoholic tone.

Hard to rate this one. Pours clear dark brown with no head. Aroma is heavily coffee and leather. The taste is weak. Good coffee, malt, and some bitter hops, all with an earthy feel. Watery mouthfeel. Finished like an ESB. Overall, this was good, I just wanted more.
