Commercial Description:
This is a black, medium-bodied, yet robust brew with a rich chocolate flavor and dry finish. The predominate flavor characteristic, that of smooth, dark, bittersweet cocoa, lingers on the palate from first pint to last. This is a hearty brew of seven varieties of malt, including Pale, Carastan, Crystal, Brown, Black, Munich, and an especially generous portion of Chocolate malt. Mudshark Porter gains its bitterness from Columbus hops, and its gentle hop flavor from a late addition of Willamette hops in the kettle.

Dark borwn and purple colored. Peppy, full bodied with a smoky and musty aroma, and an ash wood coating on the mouth. Some campfire wood smoke flavor and a semi-gritty texture. Very good all around porter, with a light cream and smoke nose.

Black, brown edging with tan head & good sticky retentive lacing. The aroma is sweet with lots of char & roast, total milk chocolate smell going on too. It’s like a Yoohoo with a shot of espresso and a shot of amaretto. Not too muck black patent thank god.
