Commercial Description:
Pipeline Porter is smooth and dark with a distinctive roasty aroma and earthy complexity from its diverse blends of premium malted barley. This celebration of malt unites with freshly roasted 100% Kona coffee grown at Cornwell Estate on Hawaii’s Big Island, lending a unique roasted aroma and flavor. A delicate blend of hops rounds out this palate-pleasing brew.

Thanks to brentk56 for another wonderful brew an aggressive pour from a 10oz bottle produced A finger worth of tan head the trailed of to a ring around my snifter the body was a bodacious black in color. Aromas of coffee and sweet chocolate filled my head. The flavors were nicely balanced between bitter roastiness (coffee and chocolate) and some nice sweetness (malts) The mouthfeel needs to be thicker for me it is a tad watery. A good coffee brew but not as good as I hoped seeing that they push it so had on the label

Bottle. Pours mostly black with dark brown head. Aroma is all coffee and chocolate. Flavor is more of the same with some maltiness, coffee, and chocolate. Smooth and creamy. This is one of the better coffee brews I’ve had.

Pours dark brown/black with tan head. Roasted malt and coffee aromas. Roasty flavor with coffee and a touch of sweetness and some chocolate. Medium body with above average carbonation and a slightly dry finish.

Bottled. Thanks larsniclas. Copper brown colour with medium-sized brown head. Green pepper and coffee dominates the aroma. Really thin in body with a coffee touch that would be reminiscent of thermos cofee. Here is nasty pepper again. Low on the hops and hardly suggestions of bitterness.

12 oz bottle: Pours a rich dark brown borderlining on black with a tan head and nice lacing. An interesting aroma of malt, caramel, nuts, and roasted coffee. Tastes of coffee, chocolate, malt. A great earthiness and coffee finish. I wasn’t expecting this to be as good as it was - a very pleasant surprise. The bottle says this is a limited release, hopefully, they will keep this around for a little while longer.
