[bottle - 500 ml] Dark black pour with a thick tan head. Very opaque. Smells like burnt chocolate and malts with a touch of spice and a bit of hop bitter. The taste begins with a burnt flavor that goes to a smooth malty middle and a slightly dry and cardboardy aftertaste. The alcohol is very warming and apparent. All around decent porter.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown body with light red tinges around the edge and a fluffy yellow head. The aroma is caramel-esque with chalky tart fruitiness and cookie dough notes. Thick chewy chocolately palate and toasty malts along with some hazelnut. Really I quite enjoyed this- very nice, not over the top, just plain good. It’s also dirt cheap.

Bottle. Nice deep dark brown in color with a tan head. Clean tasting and malty. Not too much malt thought, very faint. Dry in finish. Decent beer.

a black beer with a medium sized creamy tan head. weak roasted aroma with more of a lager scent with some alcohol. flavor is dry and bitter with some roasted coffee notes. body and flavor are light. some alcohol shows up in the finish. o.k. but I prefer the sweeter more robust versions.

Pours very dark brown with a deep red hue and a large brown head. The aroma has ice cream malt, milk chocolate, vanilla and cream. Medium slick body with fairly soft carbonation. The flavor starts lightly sour with milk chocolate, onions and dark caramel. The finish is sharper and has some frutiness. An okay porter.

Opaque nearly black with a huge Mocha colored head. Slight chocolate and coffee in the aroma, but overall it is somewhat weak. Flavor starts with a bitter somewhat salty start and finsihes with a touch of sweetness. Average if somewhat different Porter.

Bottle: Poured a deep black with a tan color head. The aroma is roasted malts and caramel. The taste is smokey and yet sweet and calky almost closer to a stout in my mind, but this was my first baltic porter.
