Jan 7, 2009 22oz. bomber, with mucho thanks to SuzyGreenberg. Pours dark brown with a two finger foamy tan head, moderate retention and lacing. Aroma is nuts, chocolate, coffee, and light vanilla, oak and bourbon. Flavor is a bit more roasty, with more chocolate and coffee. The flavor is more limited than what the aroma hints at, which is unfortunate; no bourbon or pinot noir to be found. Enjoyable, but wish there was more dimension in the flavor. Thanks again Ben!

Jan 2, 2009 Courtesy of sebletitje. Pours dark brown with thin mocha head. The aroma is musty dark fruitiness, some roasty malts mixed with chocolate, molasses and alcohol heat. The taste is rich roasted and toasted malts moving toward burnt malts. Nice. It gets mildly hoppy followed by chocolate malts and a hint of dark sweet dark fruitiness. Nice stout like brew. I get zero wood notes.

A really different approach to a porter.
Pours black with a frothy brown head.
Aroma reminded me a lot of banana with moderate hops. Some chocolate notes.
Taste fruity with spices and roasted malts.
Finish of coffee and very faint oak with little vanilla and a very light hoppy finish.
