Commercial Description:
This style of beer is classified in the "American Porter" category. The focus is obviously on the very dark roasted malts used in the brewing process to impart a "chocolaty flavor".This is our Valentine's Special.

Thanks to Israel for sending this along to me. Poured into a dogfish head snifter produced a huge coco colored head that took it time to dissipate. The body was the obligatory black color for a porter The aromas are huge in the roasted department not to much chocolate in there. No the flavor is where the chocolate comes to play it is real good but not as strong as say southern tier. It starts of sweet at first then finished slightly bitter. It had a good feel in the mouth rather to the thick side with light carbonation on your tongue A good porter I’d say average in the drinkability. I finished the bomber without many problems ad would go back for more

growler. big fluffy tan head. deep dark color. didn’t get a lot of chocolate in the aroma or at first taste but it came thru at the finish, a light bittersweet chocolate and cocoa taste. nice beer
