Oct 2, 2006 GABF 2006. Listed as "cup of mud" java porter. The beer pours to a pitch black body with a thin off-white head. The aroma is huge. Tons of nice coffee. Wow! The flavor is richly roasted coffee. Noticeable barley components. Tasty. Nice lingering coffee. The palate is medium-full bodied.

Oct 12, 2009 On tap at GABF 2009. This was a great coffee beer and is very underrated on this site in my opinion. Darkest brown in color with a lasting tan head. Aroma is awesome with coffee and roast as well as a little vanilla. Flavor is mainly coffee, supported by roasted malt, caramel, dark chocolate, and vanilla. Palate is smooth and creamy with medium body and not very much astringency for a coffee beer. Very good overall.

Oct 3, 2004 GABF 2004. Got my 6oz pour of this medal winner. Pure cappachino aroma. Taste is straight up latte. Smooth and robust. Bitter coffee aftertaste. No wonder it got a medal in this category.

Oct 4, 2004 GABF 2004, 6 oz. sample. Deep, dark body and light tan head. Aroma and flavor of chocolate-covered espresso beans and light hoppy notes. Nice medium-full body that is not over the top to violate the style and push this to a stout. A very solid, enjoyable coffee porter.

Oct 3, 2005 Huge coffee aroma, malt some roastiness. Deep black with a limp head. Strong acidic coffee fore that finishes with sweet creamy malt flavors and has an ample roastiness through the whole affair.
