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.

Dark transparent mahogany, off white film for head. Aroma and flavor are very weak coffee through and through. Not much else going on whatsoever.

500mL bottle. Dark red-brown with a thin film of dark tan head. Chocolate, caramel, apple-skin aromatics. Chocolate and lactic sweetness, some light coffee and toffee notes in the finish. Mouthfeel is light medium and very smooth.

Pours black with a thin off-white head. Smells of malt and barley and a light hint of caramel. Taste is very similar but somewhat bland and watered down. Aftertaste is short lived and watery. Decent but nothing fantastic.

1.14.06. Felt like 1906 with this bottle. Pretty solid porter, not the best in it’s category but decent enough for some cowboys to light their fires with on a cold windy Pennsylvania night.

pours out black with red highlights. thick fluffy, beige head that dissipated quickly. very nice lacing. nose consisted of plum, caramel, burnt sugar, coffee, and roasted barley. flavors blended together very nicely. started off smooth and ended smooth, ended on a very nice bitter sweet note. flavors consisted of dark chocolate, coffee, and roasted barley. reminded me more of a nice dry stout. didn’t have the raisin/date taste to it, which was nice. very nice beer, defenitely recomended.

Deep brown, almost black colour with a small tan head. Roasted malty aroma with a light chocolate sweetness and a faint liquorice note. Roasted malty flavor with a light coffee bitterness and a weak liquorice note.

Awesome porter, lots of chocolate in the nose and mouth, hops just right for the style. Also comes in an awesome bottle that looks like it’s from the Old West. Great beer.
