Lazy Boy Porter

Brewed by Lazy Boy Brewing
Style: Porter
Everett, Washington USA

Basically black in colour. Lightly roasty, lots of chocolate in the aroma with a moderately earthy hop signature. Really toasty flavour, like a toasted bagel, with a bit of light nuttiness. Thins out as it goes. Has not as of yet caught up to its predecessor at Druids.

Bottle: Dark black, light tan head and no lacin. Nose of some underripe blueberry, some soy and hop. Lame tart, salty, bad coffee. The flavor is astringent, thin, tart, soy, grass, ozone. Bad. Lots of carbonation. Infected?

Bomber from Bottle Trek. Opaque black color with a decent tan head that stayed awhile. Sort of chocolate roasted malt aroma - not burnt. Medium body with slightly frothy carbonation. Flavor is chocolate, dark roasted malt, and a little coffee. Finish is slightly acid and pretty dry. Lightly puckers the mouth.

Received a 22-oz bombe via trade with 5000. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a fizzy tan head that slowly dissipates toa fine film and tan ring. Aroma of roasted dark malt, some chocolate, roasted nuts, and some toasted dark leaves. Taste is medium bodied, light carbonated with flavors of toasted dark malt, some buitter and flowery hops. Finish is semi-dry, a little metallic with some chocolate/coffee aftertaste.

Bomber. Poured deeper reddish-brown with just a light dusting of beige head. The aroma picked up sweeter, roasty black patent malts and lesser chocolate with a looming sour metallic character beneath. The flavor was mostly dry-roasted black patent with mild coffee bitterness surrounding.. the sourness was there again, and while not overwhelming, it didn’t help a bit.. finished with generic roasty black malts and metal. Medium-ish bodied and dry on the palate with off notes from was seems to be an infection.. the baddies didn’t completely wreck it, but it just wasn’t a very good porter.

Bomber. Pours a brown body with a tan head large head. Malty watery chocolate with a hint of earth and roast. A sudden cherry medicinal note. Thin and possibly infected.

Thanks to Skyview. Black color with a medium head. Light roasted malt aroma. Watery roasted malt flavor. Very light coffee.

(Draught) Sampled at the Great Canadian Beer Festival 2007 in Victoria on September 8th, 2007. Lactic cocoa. Flavour of sour milk mixed with chocolate powder. Average.
