On tap- Dark opaque color with nice head and lace, medium-bodied. Coffee, chocolate, and floral aroma. Roasted malt flavor dominates the palate, dry finish. Similiar to the porters from northern England.

Chocolate mocha prune aroma, light fringe of foam, no head to speak of. Slightly tart, bitter coffee flavor. Astringent, assertive mouthfeel. Not a particulary robust or memorable representative of the style.

Nice dark colour, good head retention. Not sweet enough for my liking. I tasted too much burnt chocolate... I will certainly stick to Sierra Nevada and Anchor the next time I want an affordable porter.

Thin Porter. Good bitter chocolate/cofee flavor.

Decent flavor although not exceptional...very bitter and a little too flat, not my favorite porter.

A very nice porter- and so far, clearly the best in the Upland line (Bloomington,IN brewers make good porters but not much else).
