AgentSteve (829), SF Bay Area, California, USA Jun 17, 2008 Bottle thanks to Fidel, pours dark cola brown with minimal cream colored head. The nose is exactly as the comm. description; malty with hints of licorice and chocolate. The flavor is similar but not as rich. A bit thin on the palate. Decent beer.

Deep reddy brown, tiny off-white head. Cocoa powder aroma. Refreshing palate, pleasant carbonation. Fairly burnt taste. Long burnt finish. Decent hops, some raw fruity hop flowers detected. Fairly well balanced.
Tasty, but I feel I’ve tasted it many times before. Very easy to drink. v8powered (25), , Nevada, USA Oct 4, 2008 A very light flavored porter. Roasted malt and coffee falvor with a dry finish. Pours dark with very little head. Good enough but not Flying Dog’s best...
