Nov 3, 2006 While many porters have almost no head, this one sports a nice one. The aroma is delightful and features sweet malts. First taste has a nice "grab" to it. This is more substantial than most and is quite creamy and smooth. There is mild bitterness and it remains in an after taste and is in a nice balance with the sweeter malts. Some hops begin to bite about midway through the glass and that increases. This is a delightful offering of a style that can be less than exciting. Nightmare is rich, creamy and full of life.

Sep 22, 2006 Half inch thick khaki head with dark brown/black body with ruby red highlights. Has a smell similar to a rootbeer or a black licorice. Tastes rather roasty with sweet malt and licorice notes. Alcohol can also be tasted oddly enough... Medium bodied. Reminds me in many ways of Sam Smith’s Taddy Porter, but fuller bodied and more roasty. Hops also evident. I think I’d like it better if it didn’t have that black licorice quality in the flavor. Still a flavorful solid beer.
