<b>Draft @ MABC:</b> Pours a jet black with some mahogany around the edges and a medium-sized tan head. Immediately the coffee hits upon the glass arriving, notes of dark malts and an underlying bitter dark chocolate come in to the fold but this is mainly all about the coffee. Medium-full bodied mouth feel, perfectly carbonated. Flavor is all dark malts and coffee with some subtle chocolate flavors lingering. Good stuff and another solid brew from MABC.

Draft at Warsaw location. Poured dark brown color with an average fizzy off-white head that mostly lasted with good lacing. Moderate roasted coffee and chocolate aroma. Medium body with a smooth texture. Medium roasted dark chocolate bittersweet flavor with a medium sweetbitter finish of moderate duration. My expectations were met.

On tap at Mad Anthony and served in a shaker. This beer poured a dark brown with a thick, creamy tan head that quickly settled. A decent amount of lacing was left around the glass. The aroma of the beer was made up of strong coffee notes and a bit of chocolate. The flavor was dominated by rich, strong coffee with a touch of chocolate and vanilla. The mouthfeel was medium-bodied and just a tad thin with a moderate amount of carbonation. An easy drinking porter with a nice coffee flavor.

Growler. Black pour with off-white head. Coffee, chocolate and roasted malt aromas. Chalky, mildly bitter chocolate and coffee flavors. Medium mouthfeel. Dry chocolate finish.

This draft brew from the brewery during the Fort Wayne Locals Tasting event on 2/4/06 poured a small sized head of brown colored frothy fine to medium sized bubbles that were served mostly diminished. The body was dark black in color and very much opaque with no hope of viewing the carbonation. It left behind a fair lacing. It had a mild malty aroma with a mouth feel that was nicely tingly at the start with a nice hoppy note and a finish of mild coffee aftertaste. The flavor was a nice mix of mild coffee dark malt and hops.
