Apr 12, 2007 This was my absolute favorite option at the Portland Expo festival in 2006. I think it would be a sweet beer to dry hop

Apr 14, 2003 Like drinking a thick, rich creamy chocolate milk. hmmm....chocolate aroma, chocolate finish, roasted chocolate flavor. I do like this beer! And it also looks really nice too, with a creamy white head.

Jun 7, 2005 YUM! This smells of molasses and hops. Looks pretty nice in a glass dark brown with a thin white head that turns into a ring quickly. Flavor is where you’ll fall in love, this beer is fantastic. Molasses, chocolate, malt, and a slight hint of hops. Perfect balance for a porter. Great work Atlantic! Mouthfeel is perfect, creamy but not too creamy for a porter. This puppy is the real deal. Makes the anchor porter i had a few days back look like swill.

Feb 3, 2005 Light malty, cinnamon spiced nose. Pours a dark oak brown with a thin head and perfect lacing. Subtle carbonation that rolls quickly down the throat. Palate is full and complex, with unmistakeable tastes of burnt french roast coffee, chocolate and malt. I really enjoyed this beer!

Mar 23, 2008 Pours a very dark almost black color with a dark beige head. Sweet roasty aroma. Has a very rich coffee flavor with nice mouthfeel. This is a very nice porter.

Chocolatey, excellent balance.

Mar 21, 2001 Updated: May 12, 2003782 days since I last sampled this beer, and I was sure I’d probably never see it again.
The beer a deep brown to black, the head gigantean in size, creamy in texture and a beauteous light chocolate in color. The aroma of lightly toasted grains, coffee, and sweet malt make up this treat to the schnozzle, with the start sweet and thickly malt, the top is rich and full in its feel to the palate. Finish is a tad tart, the acidity moderate and the hops delightful in their spiciness and the aftertaste quire dry and lingering.

Aug 27, 2000 Beautifully dark in the glass, with a nice creamy head, this porter is amazing. I have a friend that makes homebrew similar to this and both are stunning. This was a beer with medium bitterness, and a hint of fruit and spice in it. A very graceful beer. Definitely worth a try.
