Commercial Description:
Inspired by local artist & roaster Michael Allen's eccentricly-named blend of coffee beans, Midnight Sun's brewers designed a beer recipe and infusion process that perfectly captures the alluring aroma, satisfying flavor and curious legend of Allen's Arctic Rhino Coffee. Arctic Rhino Coffee Porter combines two quintessential Pacific Northwest favorites: coffee and ale. The result is wonderfully romantic and robust--a duel-fueled porter that melds charismatic dark malt with freshly roasted coffee beans. The (un)rest is up to you.

Smells of ground roasted dark coffee. Black as night with a decent tan head. Thinner body. Dark and roasted in the taste. Super roasty. Pretty good I would definetly have another.

Bomber. Dark brown pour with a few centimeters brown head. Only a slight bit of coffee in the aroma. Not nearly as much as expected or hoped for. Roasted malt and chocolate also present. A little too carbonated. This is the type of beer for people who like to buy designer coffee drinks at coffee shops.

Bomber. Pours translucent dark brown with a thin but dense and lacy tan head. Big aroma and taste of coffee, cocoa, brown sugar. Medium-light body, medium carbonation. Crisp and refreshing espresso finish.

The Dan Journal #187. Tasted 6/6/08. 22oz bomber. Pitch with a brown hue. Beige head. Aromas of anise, port and sulfur. Full bodied with notes of cola and a tart bitter palate. Tight effervescence. Good coffee note. Touch lighter malt and stickier. Solid!

Bottle. Pours a dark brown with no hues and 2 finger tan head. Aroma is cocco/chocolate/coffee as well in the flavor maybe a touch of macadamian in the finish. Quality every time w/MS.
