nitro tap at brewery-pours very dark, amost black with a nice smooth brown head. looks better than most nitro pours. huge baking chocloate and roasted aroma-dusty esters also aparent. The flavors were great, like eating a hersey chocolate bar. Nice round palate for a nitro beer. While i was drinking this beer, the band playing this night played Traffic’s "low spark of high healed boys" which was pretty damn cool.

Midnight black with solid brown head. Creamy. Harsh charcoal-like-flavors with a sweet-bitter finish. Thin body.

A nice porter.... that took about 2 to 3 minutes to pour. Nice color and for the most part worth the wait. Not as godd as say Anchor Porter, but still worth a try.

There is a solid roast aroma in this beer. It is a black color (perhaps a hint of a dark brown hue as well), and is topped by a solid, dense, creamy brown head. The taste is of chocolate up front, but then moves to roasted notes and finishes with an acidic twang. This is a very creamy smooth beer with almost no carbonation. This is a full flavored example of a Guinness draft, and it is far superior.

At the brewery, I was served this porter on nitro, which I alway love. The chocolate was not very noticeable. The porter was more like a stout. It took a while to pour as well as settle, but a fine brew.

Wow! Gorgeous DEEP chestnut color. Watching the nitro bubbles in this one is a treat. Smooth, smoky, chocolatey malt flavor balanced out nicely by what taste to me like english hops. Finishes clean and dry. Medium to medium heavy body, smooth butter mouthfeel. Very nice. Watch not to get dehydrated!
