Served in dimpled mug. A pitch black beer with a thick tan head. Rich coffee aroma is roasty without being burnt. Medium carbonation. Great lingering toasted malt gives the beer its roasted yummy flavors, while a touch of fruitiness adds character and body. Very good, clean, quaffable and perfect on chilly winter days!

Dark brown with a rich head. Chocolatey, toasty, complex dark malt nose. Full body. Dry. Smooth, chocolatey, nutty malt finish. Really tasty.

Dark brown with a thick tan head. Aroma of sweet roasted malt and chocolate. The flavor is pretty similar. The chocolate really comes in the finish. A bit of coffee in there too. A surprisingly good porter, and the best beer I tried at the brew pub.

Dark color and flavor with little carbonation. Helped to warm me up when visiting St. Augustine at Christmastime. Well-bodied with a pronounced, spicy snap (but not overbearing) and a nice coffee finish.

TheDM and Hotstuff vacation brew 53. This draft brew was enjoyed at the brewery in Saint Augustine Florida. This brew poured a large head of mostly diminishing loght brown colored bubbles that left behind a semi-transparent dark brown colored body with no visible carbonation and a most excellent lace. The aroma was a medium strength coffee one and the mouthfeel was initially smooth then finished with a tingly mild hop bite. The flavor contained notes of malt hop and coffee. It was indeed a very nice porter.
