this is a great porter. Nice roasted malts, gives it bit of a chocolaty taste. Very smooth, could drink a ton of these. Aroma is of roasted expresso beans. It pleases my senses.

Dark with a creamy head. Vanilla, milk, roasted malts, and chocolate in the aroma. Full bodied and quite smooth. Plenty of chocolate malt, some vanilla, milk, and finishes with a very light cocoa bitterness. I could drink this all night, every night. Great porter.

Poured a dark brown color into a pint glass with a small head. Had a roasted malt smell with a hint of chocolate. You can definitely taste the roasted chocolate malt, but it is not overpowering. Quite drinkable even at 6.7% alc/vol. I only had one bottle, although it left me wanting more.

Aroma is full of dark roasty malts, with some sweetness, and chocolate malts. The appearance is very dark, with a thin off-white head. A very dark color, brown-black. Flavor is full of chocolates, roasted barley malts, and coffee malts. The beer is a full-bodied well balanced. Also good for a quality session night.

Feels like a dark lager in the mouth, yet tastes of a chocolately, malty porter.
