Nov 29, 2009 A very pleasant beer. It has some nice coffee notes, but at the same time it’s fairly light-bodied for a porter. Refreshing and smooth, just like the picture on the label.

Nov 27, 2009 Bottle. Pours fizzy and deep brown with a small tan head, pretty lively. Aroma of milk chocolate, unsweetened cocoa, caramel, latte, and hazelnut. Smells great. Smooth and silky on the tongue, sweet, with a roasty bitterness emerging in the finish. Very mild, almost milky. Medium body. This is really quite nice. Thanks Dad!

Nov 23, 2009 Pours a dark brown color with ruby highlights. Aroma is roasted malt, coffee. Flavor was more roast and coffee but was offset by a lot of metallic pennies and weird oxidization. Mouthfeel was fairly thin. Not a great beer.

Nov 22, 2009 Pours dark, dark brown that is almost black with a little head. The aroma is chocolate and coffee with a nice earthiness. The flavor is coffee notes and rich toastiness, slight ashtray. The palate is dry with a light carb and a good body. Overall an interesting beer that is good for one bottle. Some nice flavors and some off flavors.

Nov 21, 2009 12oz bottle. Pours very dark brown with a moderate light tan head. Dry with decent but indistinct hops and a background of roasted malt and coffee. I had a hard time finding good beer while visiting Hawaii. This was a welcome relief when I could find it.

Nov 20, 2009 Bottled 10-7-09. Pours a dark choclate with a ruby red tint with a med tan to a cocoa colored head. Aroma of choclate, malt, and coffee. Great flavors of cold coffee and bitter malt, but thin on the palate reminding of a lager style beer. i would score this beer much better if it had some cream to go with the coffee.
