Tap at the Canes game. Nice dark color with a brownish head. Smell of coffee and chocolate with much the same taste. Not great by any means, but good.

Served on draft at the brewery. Pours a dark reddish brown color with a large head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet roasted malts with lactic and coffee notes. Taste is fruity in the beginning with notes of green apple and pear. Finish is roasted malts and chocolate. Full bodied.

On tap at the Leesville Taproom in Raleigh. Black pour gives way to a very small tan head. Roasty coffee and some chocolate aroma and flavors. Nice chocolate character as well. Solid porter.

Had a couple of these at the Mellow Mushroom in Winston with Chris and Ryan. The description pretty much hits it, no need to repeat. I would just add a bit of sour flavor. Good porter.

Sample @ Foothills: Sweet toffee aroma with buttered caramel. Flavor is nice roasted character with some sweeter hints of toffee. Nice.

On tap at Foothills. Dark, heavy pour with creamy head. Smoky chocolate aroma. Nice and subtle coffee notes with brown sugar in the finish. Very satisfying.
