Dec 15, 2008 Bottle. Dark brown with a fleeting head. Nice nutty, chocolate malt aromas. Medium body. Decent nutty roasty flavors comes across a bit thin. Nice bittersweet cocoa flavor to finish.

Feb 10, 2009 Updated: Aug 5, 200912oz bottle, no date. Clear deep brown ruby with very small beige head, fading to a thin ring. Aroma of roasted malts, dark chocolate, and a bit of cola. The flavor adds some grainy roasted malts, but thankfully no burnt character that pisses me off all too often. Semi-dry with a roasty, mildly bitter (2-3 out of 10) finish. Thin body with almost no carbonation at all. I’m going to try another bottle and make sure I didn’t have a faulty bottle, as I was kinda excited to try this one. Rerate--still a little thin bodied, but carbonation is better--also some light pine hops. It gets 3 extra points now.

Apr 1, 2006 12 oz. bottle, thanks to DarkElf for sharing. Pours dark brwon with a moderate sized tannish head and thick lacing. Sweet chocolate and roasty malt with coffee dominate both the aroma and the flavor. Medium to full body with smooth carbonation.

Apr 11, 2004 First offering from this brewery. Dark in color. Aroma is faintly bitter. Mouthfeel is a little thin. Really this came off too bitter for a porter. A little taste of roasted malt dominates the palatte.
