bu11zeye (5430), Frisco, Texas, USA Oct 10, 2009 ( 22 oz bottle, provided by Cavie ) Pours an amber-brown body with a small beige head. Aroma of vinegar and some chocolate and roasted malt. Flavor of vinegar, caramel, chocolate, and roasted malt. Infected. Drain pour. angrypirate06 (678), Texas, USA Sep 28, 2009 Bottle from cavie. Dark brown pour. Aroma was sour. Flavor was sour, hint of chocolate and smoke. Seemed infected. Fratto (670), Arlington, Texas, USA Sep 25, 2009 Thanks Cavie. I was going to post about how this was probably a bad bottle due to being so thin, sour, and tart. Then I saw how many people also got "bad bottles". I don’t know, it just wasn’t anything like a porter. Sour chocolate ale? Cavie (1317), Fort Worth, Texas, USA Sep 19, 2009 Clouded red brown pour. Some chocolate on the pour. Mostly sour scents. Slightly tart taste with some sweeter elements. Tasty yet strangely not to style. BMan1113VR (2757), Los Angeles (and Dallas), Texas, USA Sep 18, 2009 Bottle thanks to cavie. I have seen this so many times without actually picking it up. Pours with a fading tan head and a brown body. Aroma is vinous, with grain, chocolate and dark fruit. Taste is vinous, wet leaves/compost, chocolate, cocoa beans, and badness. Light bubbles and dry. Barely drinkable. JohnnyJ (1283), Carlsbad, California, USA Sep 12, 2009 This beer is terrible, like a previous person mentioned this was very unpleasant at first because it is not what you would think. Some malt with sourness, bad fruit, and grain. After drinking a bit more I can pick up very slight amount of roasted malt. This is not good at all, dont try this. AlfredJesusson (3), San Diego, California, USA does not count Sep 11, 2009 Three different levels of beer drinkers were present for the tasting and all agreed: this isn’t a chocolate porter at all. What’s funny is that it would almost work as a sour or sort of summer session. First sip was unpleasant, but mostly because I was expecting something else. Once I got to drinking it and forgot what it’s called, I didn’t mind it so much. Obvious acidity and sour notes that don’t try to hide themselves. Pretty light despite the color. What I wish Sunset Wheat would taste like. Maybe this is all a practical joke on Bayhawk’s part. I could get behind a brewery that names its beers after things they totally aren’t. drowland (1360), Tallahassee, Florida, USA Aug 15, 2009 I had this a long time ago and the only notes I took down where: A bit tart/tangy. Hmmm...
