Draft. A deep red beer with a lazing tan head. The aroma is sweet malty with notes of caramel and roasted malt. The flavor is sweet malty with notes of roated malt, which lends the beer a slight acidity.

On tap at Green Dragon in Portland, OR--a deep dark black-brown body. Wispy off-white head. Hoppy and robust. Finished with prevalent flavors of chocolate and bitter fruits. Wicked decent!

Tap at Brewers on the Bay. Written as "Porter Caldera" on the board. Aroma of light roast and earth. Mild and smooth taste of lactose, some cocoa, and roast. Finishes with a light citrus/astringent tang and a coffee aftertaste. Pretty smooth mouthfeel, but it was just too easy going for me. Very normal flavors IMO.

Pours very dark brown, like dark chocolate with a soft tan head. Rich roasty flavor with a large chocolate flavor, slight cocoa dry flavor and medium hop finish. This was an excellent porter, very smooth and balanced with a great chocolate flavor.
