Maritime Pacific Bosuns Black Porter

Brewed by Maritime Pacific Brewing Co.
Style: Porter
Seattle, Washington USA

Pours dark with no head. Opaque. Fruity malty aroma. The taste is very coffee-ish with a fair amount of smokey flavors. Bitter, dry finish. Very good brew!

Draught: I had this at a Restauraunt in the Seattle area. The beer pours a good dark color. A fair, tan colored head. The aroma is fairly typical of a porter. There is some coffee, chocolate and roastiness to it. The taste is on the same lines of roastiness and chocolate. There is a bit of sweetness to it. A bit of bitterness in the after-taste. Overall, a decent brew!

This beer was on nitro, co2 and cask and the brewery! I had the cask of course. Very dark with an astringent coffee aroma. Taste was typical of a porter with some defined smokiness to it. Very well textured as you would expect from a cask beer like this.

Dark brown, lasting tan head.Malt nose. Sweet malt taste with decent body and some finishing hops. Good lace. If you ever get a chance to have this on nitro at the brwery, don"t pass it up. NOTE:If you get a chance to try this on Nitro at the brewery do so

Really great roasted malt aroma, I am getting a bunch of toast with hints of chocolate and coffee... molasses in a round-about way. The flavor is moderately sweet with much of the bitterness being fairly balanced by the malts. A little smoke on the toasty finish. A fine porter from these landlubbers. Arrrh

This beer has a very sweet flavor to it, and a good thick look, somewhat like the dense head that froths off a Guiness. There isn’t much hop aroma, but there is a fairly strong bitter flavor that is offset by the sweetness of chocolate/coffee grain choices. A very fullfilling and robust beer with a lingering bitter aftertaste. Very nice!
