Cocoa and burnt coffee flavors, a touch of charcoal and light grapefruit. Medium to light bodied. Dry cocoa flavors in the finish. Nice.

May 30, 2007 Pours a deep brown with garnet highlights and a creamy tan head that laces nicely. The nose is primarily heavy roasted malt backed by coffee. Medium-bodied and slick while remaining lively on the tongue, the mouthfeel finishes a slightly bitter and metallic. Typically, I really dislike a metallic finish, but the other textures and flavors kept it in line. The flavor follows the nose and is of dark roasted malts and burnt coffee. Effervescent, almost prickly on the tongue, this porter concludes with a nice lingering roasted finish.

May 29, 2007 Updated: Jul 7, 2007Get with it, guys...this is definitely closer to a 4 than it is to a 3. Classic look, smell, and taste....you can’t deny it. Don’t front. Comparable with Sierra Nevada’s offering...

May 27, 2007 initial aroma of chocolate, sweet malt, and metal. strange metalllic flavor with more chocolate and malt. finishes with a bitter coffee flavor and some flowers. felt as if it were missing something. although it starts metallic and strange it does improve as it gets warmer.

May 27, 2007 Deep brown beer with a dark tan head. Aroma is a bit smokey. Palate is smooth, with a hint of carbination. Flavor is a semi-sweet chocolate with a hint of coffee. A good example of a porter.
