pours a reddish brown-black with a small tan head with nice lacing. Aroma is of lightly roasted malts, stale coffee, coco, and some metallic notes. Taste is similar with some vanilla and caramel notes. Has a medium-light body with a watery mouthfeel and a mostly sweet moderately short finish. Overall, a below average porter.

A redfisn brown porter with a thin brown head. In aroma, a weird biscuit malt with light boiled veggies. In mouth, a light nutty roasted malt with grassy hops, so-so.

Tough to call it a Porter. I cannot blame Wasatch as Utah has strict ALC % laws.
light sweetness

On tap at a restaurant in Springdale, Utah. Pours reddish brown and smells of malt and coffee. Flavor is malt, chocolate, coffee, roast. Quite watery for a porter. Best thing about this is the funny name.

12oz. poured into a Great Divide Shaped pint glass.
A - Pours a clear dark brown with 1 finger of khaki head that leaves specks of lacing behind.
S - Roasted malts, some metallic/mineral aromas, brown sugar, a little smoke as it warms.
T - Roasted malt, bakers chocolate, some watered down coffee. Grassy hops are vaguely present. Finishes nutty and dry with a tiny bit of sourness.

An easy drinking Porter for sure. It’s a little lackluster but could be a nice session.

2.7 AROMA 5/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 4/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 12/20
12 oz. bottle. Pours dark brown, almost black with a tan head. Aroma of roasted malt with similar flavors. Thin mouthfeel and a very simple porter.
2.8 AROMA 8/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 7/20
Bottle: Color: Reddish Brown. Aroma: Cocoa and Malt. Flavor: Watery palate / Flavor profile of malt and chocolate on an extremely mild scale. While this beer is on the border of tasty, it is not creamy and thick as it claims. A stronger taste of both elements would have made this more pleasant.
