Sep 10, 2009 12oz. Beer is cloudy due to bottle conditioning, deep red turning to brown. Aroma is yeasty giving way to some malt and grass. No hop aroma and just a touch of bitterness. Roasted malt takes center stage in the mouth with malt and grass supporting from the nose. Pleasant to drink but doesn’t feel like I’m going anywhere. Fine to drink, especially at just $1.33 a bottle. Yay beer!

Jul 10, 2009 Bottle - thanks mcox90. Pours a leathery brown color with a large, frothy beige head. Mild aroma is sweet. Nuts, roast, and light coffee. Tastes roasty with coffee and light floral notes. Just a shred of cocoa before a lingering bittersweet tail. Not bad, but not that great either.

Jul 7, 2009 Bottle thanks to porterhouse. Pours with a large, creamy khaki head over a murky brown body. Aroma of soap, dark fruits, cocoa and vanilla. Taste is hazelnuts and watery with light fruits and possibly a light infection. Watery mouthfeel with medium carbonation.

Feb 28, 2009 12 oz bottle. Pours a dark clear brown with a small khaki colored head. Aroma is roasted malts with a hint of coffee. Palate is a bit on the thin side with a fair amount of carbonation. First flavor is a bit of the hop, but that quickly fades and a bit of cocoa takes over. Also, some coffee notes as well as some nuttiness. Not as hearty as some porters, but a decent brew.

Oct 4, 2008 (Bottle). Very roasty aroma, some coffee. Dark reddish brown, with very large tan creamy head that lasts. Taste is extremely roasty, charcoal-ish, nice bitterness, a little hint of nuts, almost no chocolate. Mildly bitter finish. The body is a little thin, but otherwise a nice offering.

4/30/2008: Andrew’s St. Nick’s Porter pours a toasty brown color with a very large cascading tan head. The beer itself is mostly clear and has a moderate amount of carbonation. The aroma presents roasted malt and some chocolate. Flavors include weak coffee, fruity malt, hints of chocolate, and a decent grassy bitterness in the crisp finish. It has a medium-light body with a smooth texture. Overall this beer isn’t complex, but it is well-balanced and easy to drink.
