On tap at the Coronado Brewing Company. Poured dark brown with a very small, white head that left lacing around the glass. The aroma is very faint... some burnt chocolate notes and some hops. The taste is smooth; starts out with some roasted malts, chocolate and espresso up front, and follows with a medium hop-presence. This was a decent porter, but a little more hoppy that I’m used to. I think I prefer malts to be dominant if the beer isn’t balanced... it was decent and drinkable, but not one of my favorite porters.

On-tap at CBC. Pours clearish brown with a resilient, creamy, light brown head, laces the glass all the way down. Smells roasty malty, slightly smokey and also slightly chocolatey sweet. Tastes rich and roasty sweet malty, slightly smokey, some chocolate notes with a slightly sour finish. Medium, smooth body with nice carbonation.

A good roast in this aroma also. A strong flavor of roast and some bitter chocolate. The is some pretty good stuff.

Tap @ the brewpub. Poured black with an off-white head. Sweet and roasty with a little coffe. Roasty flavor some sweetness. Semi-dry moderately bitter finish with some coffee notes. Medium body.

I dont think I’m very big on porters anymore. Grabbed a sample from one of the salesmen. Had a burnt coffee nose instead of the fresh stuff I’m used to. An ok brew
