Jan 25, 2009 Ingoring the fact that the guy(s) serving the beer a the berwery was a complete a-hole...this is one tasty beer. Spent a couple days in Missoula and would have gone back if not for the poor service. Dark coffee black. Very thick with some sweetness. A bit of ester-ness.

Jul 9, 2007 Thanks to skyview for sharing. One of the better beers from Kettle House that he provided. Nice roasted malt and faint coffee aroma. Solid roasted malt body.

Jul 19, 2007 Picked up single 16-oz can at the brewery’s taproom in Missoula, Montana. Pours a dark opaque near black brew with a thin tan head that dissolves to a tan ring. Aroma of roasted dark malt, dark bittersweet chocolate, some mocha, and a touch of flowery hops. Taste is smooth, creamy, full bodied with some roasted malt and earthy herbal flavors. Finish is smooth, slick with a light chocolate and herbal spice aftertaste. Hemp in the beer? Man was I wise not to take a return trip through Utah to bring this back to Minnesota. That Utah State Trooper would have made things quite difficult for me.

Jul 9, 2007 Many thanks to the king of the west, Skyview. Black color with a thick head. Roasted malt aroma and fairly herbal. Strong roasted malt flavor with what I would only assume to be a big hemp flavor, not that I’ve chewed on a lot of hemp leaves in my life... Bitter finish. Dang tasty.

Jun 26, 2006 Dark brown with a tan head and lacing. Strong roasted coffee and bitter hops aroma. Some cocoa. The flavor is a mocha mix that I just love in porters. Roasty and beautiful. Great beer.

Aug 8, 2007 Thanks to Skyview for sharing. Pours a dark roast coffee like black with really no head. Super thick dark malty sweetness, as well as some banana and toffee dominate the palate and the beer from beginning to end is very sweet.

May 3, 2006 Draught at the Brewpub: Dark black, tan head, good lacing. Nose of light roast, just a faint hemp note, maybe it’s just in my mind. The flavor is rich with cocoa and chocolate, sweet mocha roast and light lactose. Chewables in the finish. Good.

Oct 10, 2009 Growler thanks to Toby, man this growler is at least two months old- seriously I should have drank it sooner, but I wanted to share it, and wow, this beer is fine. Opened with a massive release of carbonation, pours a pure black color with a massive thick beige head. A sweet roasted malt nose, some vegetal hemp notes. A sweet unusual flavor, strong herbs almost like drinking weed. Toasted malts, earth and ash. I don’t know what to say except the hemp flavor dominates in an awesome way, herbal like a wicked medicine. Very interesting. As to the state of the growler...I have no idea why this is so good after so long.
