UPDATED: APR 24, 2023 12oz bottle pours opaque reddish black with a generous rocky tan head. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts. Taste is similar, almost smoky. Fair bitterness but well balanced. Medium body, silky smooth and not too sweet. Bittersweet chocolate finish.

UPDATED: MAR 29, 2023 This is a really nice change of pace beer for me. It pours a lovely dark brown with some lacing. Aroma is nice with hints of chocolatekl. The taste is good and mouthfeel is very nice. Good long lasting finish in my opinion. Overall... a 4k

UPDATED: MAR 29, 2023 12 oz. bottle from Total Wine. Deep brown, nearly black pour with a couple inches of tan foam crown. Deep aromas of dark chocolate, cocoa and coffee beans. Immediately you will notice the lush and robust palate. Lighter than a big stout, but well-rounded with a huge helping of roasted malts — fully balanced by an avalanche of plentiful, carefully selected hops. It laced my glass as I continued to pick up sweet notes of more coffee, caramel and toffee. Good bitterness balance. A truly masterful porter. Don’t expect the thickness of an imperial stout here, but as far as dark beers go, this is a great one.

UPDATED: MAR 8, 2023 Dark with a tan head; good, but soft carbonation; chocolate and caramel malts, and toffee aroma with a hint of coffee beans; more prominent taste of roasted malts and coffee at the front, and fudgy back; medium-to-full body; creamy and smooth mouthfeel.

UPDATED: JAN 1, 2023 Pint at The Winking Lizard In Peninsula, Ohio to start the new year. Smell the roasted malt. Black in color with tan head. Taste the sweet roasted malt. Very smooth and taste is complexed. Sweet malt aftertaste. Super nice beer. Cheers!

UPDATED: JAN 1, 2023 Draught, half pint. @'Xarope', Sarria. 31/12/2022 [#5.744 Global - #894 United States of America - #11 Founders Brewing Company] Pours black with a lacing tan head. Aroma: chocolate malts, mild nuts and espresso. Taste: espresso and dark chocolate leading to a medium bitter finish. Next one please!!

UPDATED: JAN 1, 2023 Twelve ounce bottle at Go Bananas Comedy Club on December 31, 2022.--served with a chilled glass: not good. Opaque mahogany hue, zesty roasted malt/nut/chocolate/caramel aroma, very pleasing taste with malt and chocolate in the forefront. Hard to believe I haven't rated this brew before. A bit of astringency doesn't lower the scored much. Very solid brew.
