Nov 30, 2005 12z bottle. Dark maple hue with clear body. Sparse tan head. Great toffee and coffee nose. Slight sugar and sherry note in the aroma. Rich and smooth in the mouth. More so medium bodied. Lingering sticky sweet malt flavor. Nice hop note in the finish. Anise and caramel, bitter chocolate and coffee, slight piney, pruny. The hops give it an added step in the finish. They linger a little less than the malts so the bitterness fades. Quite heavy and thick and sticky at the end of the glass.

Nov 12, 2005 Just snagged this single at Whole Foods while I was grabbing my sandwich. Nothing too exciting here, but it must be healthy because it’s organic.

Oct 23, 2005 On tap at the Brewgrass Festival in Asheville, looked, smelled, and tasted like a porter. Nothing really special about it, but a solid beer nonetheless.

Dark almost opaque, good tanned head, lace. Roasted, cold coffee nose. Carbonated, roasted, almost chocolaty. With roasted malts also some bitterness in the aftertaste. Easy to drink - balanced porter. (7/4/7/4/15 3.7)

Oct 15, 2005 bottle. Deep, near black, red hue with a thin tan head. The aroma is roasted malt with some faint dry fruit. The flavor is predominantly chocolate with a little toasted malts. This would be excellent if it were more robust, but quite drinkable none-the-less.
