Oct 12, 2008 Black, tan creamy head. Soft vanilla coffee and cream nose ride swirls of dark chocolate. Dark roasted coffee flavors balance well on lighter chocolate tones. Medium bodied, soft carbonation, bittersweet finish. Nice session porter…

Nov 26, 2006 Draught pint at the brewpub, early October 2006. Small white head diminishes instantly atop the translucent brown-black body....massive java nose, rather creamy and soft but entrancing, hints of caramel malt moderate the coffee; not complex at all but lovely nonetheless....body is well-balanced between dark coffee roastiness, burnt grains and sugary creme brulee-caramel.....smooth, very light but never watery....long, long finish.

Oct 29, 2006 GABF 2006. Bronze bodied. Small tanned head. Nose is coffee, dark, bittersweet chocolate and roasty malts. Pretty typical. Taste is more of the same stuff. Coffee, dark chocolate, and roasted malts. Think some cold, but sweetened and sugared, dark coffee. Body is light-medium. There’s some moderate carbonation. Ends with more coffee and choco notes. Not a bad coffee beer.

Oct 9, 2006 Draft... GABF ’06... Dark, clear, burnt orange brew with a small, creamy, off-white head. The aroma and flavor are of strong coffee and chocolate. The flavor is also tangy and a touch thin. Almost medium-bodied and astringent with lively carbonation. Big coffee, dry finish.

Oct 2, 2006 GABF 2006. The beer pours to a transparent dark chestnut colored body with a thin white head. The aroma is sweet, coffee, nicely balance. The flavor is sweet, coffee and has a nice malt profile. Very drinkable.

Sep 18, 2006 This is the best Porter I think there is if you like a good medium body coffee in the morning. The color was dark brown to black and had a very rich coffee aroma. It had a chocolate start with a bold coffee flavor that would be a real eye opener on a cold winter morning.
