Sep 13, 2008 Updated: Sep 14, 2008Really pissed off that they didn’t package this in my variety pack after its picture is clearly on the box, so it gets a failure across the board from me. This isn’t the first time that Flying Dog has screwed me on a variety pack, either- I got two tripels and no barleywines in a variety four-pack a few months ago. Thanks for the false advertising, assholes!

Sep 12, 2008 Updated: Sep 18, 2008Bottle: pours a jet black color. Smoked malt, toffee aroma. Taste is similar and primarily of smoked/roasted malt with not much sweetness. A slight toffe and coffee flavor sneaks in. Nice dryness at the end. Good, hearty beer.

Sep 8, 2008 Firkin @ DuClaw Real Ale Festival. Brown pour with a light tan head. Light carbonation. Bread-like aroma with no hops aroma. Semi sweet body, some molasses and chocolate. Smoother than from a bottle.

Sep 6, 2008 Poured an opaque dark brown. Aroma was a lot of roasted malts and sweetness. Flavor was smooth. this was an easy beer to drink. Nothing terribly complex, but a really nicely crafted porter.

Sep 4, 2008 (Bottle). Roasty malt aroma, touch of sweetness. Color is very dark brown, with a small tan head. Interesting taste profile, with distinct roastiness and smoke, along with malted sweetness, followed by a prolonged malty finish. And yes, the body is a bit thin.

Sep 4, 2008 Variety pack of Flying Dog... This is the only one that receives more than a passing grade from me. Very dark brown with a tan head. Roasted barley and chocolate on the nose. Tastes malty, again with a little chocolate coming through. Palate was very nice. Medium bodied - not as thick as I was expecting. Nice carbonation.
