GJF (195), Cedar Rapids, Iowa, USA Jul 25, 2008 This is a solid porter with lots of roast malt from start to end. A little light in body, but the flavor is packed. CaryTheDude (114), Ripon, Wisconsin, USA Jun 24, 2008 In the words of Borat, very nice. Tobacco and coffee are such a fine combination, and they’re excellent in this porter. A little watery, but no real complaints. Could drink this one all day. zeke626 (188), Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA Jun 8, 2008 Thanks to akevitt for sharing. Bottle. Pours a black body with red hues and a light brown head. Aroma of roasted malts, cocoa, and coffee. Medium-bodied with a slightly watery mouthfeel. Flavors of roasted malts and bitter coffee. Finish is clean with a bitter coffee taste. pint_size (1001), Austin, Texas, USA Jun 2, 2008 5-18-08 bottle shared with lb4lb thanks to buckybeer!
Black brown pour with an initial big beige head that is nice and fluffy but fades quickly. Nice roasted malt and caramel aroma that is present up front but it changes to just sweet malt. Flavor is a hint on the thin/watery side but is sweet and nutty malt. Mouthfeel is a hint thin and has a medium carbonation. Overall, I would like a little more flavor and oomph but it is drinkable and not bad. Taverner (416), San Ramon, California, USA May 30, 2008 A very decent porter! Pours dark brown with tan head. Aroma is licorice and ouzo. Flavor is smoke, prunes, licorice, ouzo, and a slight absinthe flavor. Porters are blends, so they can vary porter to porter. This one is good.
