Aug 26, 2008 Pours a deep brown with minimal head. The nose is roasted chocolate malt,with hints of caramel & coffee. Comes across the palate rather weak in flavor. Mild chocolate, mild coffee, and just a note of caramel. Has a lingering faint chocolate after taste.

Aug 18, 2008 12 oz bottle from Lukas Liquor Superstore.
Pours a smooth reddish brown with no head. Leaves minimal lacing. Pretty clear looking body. Smells of sweet roasted malts, silky chocolate, red liquorice, nutty. Mellow roasts and rich milk chocolate tastes make it really balanced with the hops. Really nice. Medium body that finishes kind of foamy, but dry. A light lingering bitterness in the aftertaste. Overall, a really nice porter. Pretty standard taste, but a lot of it. Not too complex or intense, which helps balance this nicely. I would definitely buy this again.
