Bottle courtesy of gunhaver. Pours a generally clear cola brown with thin tan head. Aroma is slightly hoppy with light roast notes and hints of chocolate, oats, some faint caramel. Flavor is sweet and malty with floral hops, roasted malt, coffee, grain, and ripe dark fruit notes. Generally medium body with a malty finish.

Bottle. Dark brown pour, medium sized tan head. Chocolate and roast coffee aroma, chocolate , roast coffee, oatmeal and a nice malt base dominate the flavor profile. Dry and slightly bitter on the finish.

On tap at Coasters. Pours black but not as black as a Baltic Porter. Slightly noticable roasted malt aromas. Nothing really jumps out. Flavor is good; hints of dark chocolate and light piney hops. Nothing too complex but certainly well balanced. Overall a very good porter.

Thanks daknole. Pours dark brown, opaque in the glass with an active, short lived beiged head. Roast malt aroma, with a dark fruit tartness to it. Enjoyable roast body, chocolate and dusty smoke overtones, with the hops and dark fruit characters melding nicely. Medium body, very smooth, light carbonation.

Bottle, pours dark brown, nearly black and almost completely opaque. Finger of head disapates quickly with light lacing. Aromas of chocolate and roasted coffee dominate with a piney hoppiness to balance. Taste has hop bitterness in front of large roasted coffee maltiness. Smooth mouthfeel with a nutty, coffee and chocolate finish. Quite enjoyable!

Pours a dark coffee colored beer with a light tan head. the aroma is semi bitter chocolate, oatmeal grains, and toasted malts. A nice bitterness to sweet ratio allows for a smooth overall balance on the palate. A great choice for the enjoyable comforting beer anytime.

Bottle. Pours a thick slightly reddish black with a thin off white head. Slightly bitter chocolate and oatmeal aroma, very nice and smooth. Silky smooth oatmeal, chocolate and roasted grains taste. Very good porter, all ingredients balance out very nicely.

Bottle. Dark pour as expected. The dark/bakers chocolate smell was nice, with the oatmeal in there. Toated malts and nice bitterness. I really nice.
