Jan 24, 2008 Interesing taste. Much better in the bottle than on tap, in my opinion. Nice hints of coffee and chocolate; bitter. Fizzier than I expected.

Jan 21, 2008 Fantastic pour. Aroma was a little weak in my opinion, but still had a nice roasted scent. A very well balanced porter.

Jan 20, 2008 12 oz bottle shared at the Foam Rangers Club meeting. Pours a dark brown with a big tan head. Aroma of roasty malt. Taste was very good coffee and bitter chocolate. Mouthfeel was medium with a nice dry, bitter aftertaste. I almost didn’t sample this one because I had never heard of it, but glad I did.

Jan 15, 2008 Pours a big thick head that leaves behind a strong lacing. Rocky tan head. Lightly roasty smells. Taste is strong with roastiness and there’s a slight sweetness. Very drinkable.

Jan 13, 2008 Updated: Jan 14, 2008Thanks to Vance for this one. Black pour, with a medium tan head. Aroma smells like pancakes in a way. It’s sweet and bready. The flavor is well roasted, coffee like, some chocolate. A little light overall, but satisfying all the same.

Jan 12, 2008 Inky black pour with an awesome head and some damn impressive lacing.
Smells really smoky and dark. I’m actually surprised at how good this smells. Very nice and dark.
There is actually a surprisingly prevalent hop presence to this porter. Still dark and malty and roasty but also has the hop presence to complete it. Really nice.
Solid ass porter here. Not the best I’ve ever had, but there ain’t nothing wrong with this one....nothing at all..
