Black pour with a tiny tan head. Roasted malt nose with a little bit of hop and some mocha notes. Flavor is rich malt and sweet coffee with some chocolate and caramel. A bit thin, but flavorful. Nice.

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with small tan head. Notes of toffee and biscuits with lots of roasted malts and subtle hops. A nice porter.

Bottle in Atlanta. Very nice. Super dark pour with a nice beige head. Coffee, chocolate and caramel are evident on the nose and in the flavor. Some good sweetness and a bit yeaty. Mouthfeel isnt quite as good as the flavor, but this is good stuff.

My last bottle from SecretSanta - Thanks Santa! Dark brown pour with a 1-finger tan head. Sweet aroma of caramel and some coffee. Flavor was similar, very sweet and somewhat bready with a hint of chocolate. A bit thin though. Tasty and enjoyable.

Bottle from elmatador00 -- thanks!

Pours dark brown with a small head and a sightly thin appearance around the edges. Nice roasty aroma, coffee and some sweet red grape. The flavor disappoints slighty after this nice aroma: it’s a bit charred, a bit ashen-bitter, a mild sour funkiness, a whisper of smoke, but again that burnt bitterness in the close without enough residual sugars to drive it through. Overall it comes off thin and bitter (not lovely hop bitter, unfortunately) and I’m not impressed by this one, though it’s not that bad either.

Deep and rich brown pour with a very very fine head of small bubbles. Nose is slightly sweet and maybe some sweet malty notes. Taste is at first tangy and molassess sweet but resolves into a nice dry roasted malt happiness. Texture is a little thin, but okay. a nice beer.
