Draught, from a 4 oz. flight sample. Reddish-brown color, small beige head. Aroma is roasted malts, chocolate, slight bit of wine. Flavor is similar, lots of chocolate, light--not very heavy, some caramel, hazelnut. Soft, slightly oily mouthfeel.

On tap at the brewpub. Somewhat thin brown pour, with a fairly lively carbonation and a thick creamy head. Thinness confirmed in the palate, and it comes across more like a decently robust brown than any porter of note. Sweet malts are a bit over the top, and there’s not a whole lot of depth to it. The least of the several beers I tried here.
