Bottle at patrick767 gathering. Small tan head that mostly diminished, no lacing, opaque, very little carbonation, and a black hue. Nose was malty, caramel, roasty and hoppy. Flavor was malty, roasty, coffee, and some dried fruit. Smooth mouthfeel and medium body. Very quaffable, definitely worthy of a try and I would definitely drink this one again if it were to come my way. Quite tasty indeed and nicely done.

Bottle. Very dark brown to near black pour. Short fading tan head. Aroma is dark chocolate, strong malt, light coffee notes, smoky notes and dark fruit. Taste is roasted malts, dark chocolate, bitter coffee, hop bitterness, lesser dark fruit notes, smoky wood and touches of melon. Body si medium-full and chewy. Strong carbonation notes as well. Ends with more chocolate, smoky/smoldering wood, cocoa, roasted malts, bitter, oily coffee, and hop notes. Melon comes through a bit towards the end as well. Very nice!

Nice roast aroma, a very good porter if not a splendid one. I think they can improve this.

Bottle. Black beer with a light head. The aroma is strongly coffee and dry, and the flavour is very dry and coffeeish. Overall a nice roasted coffeeish beer.

Savannah, Ga. - Habersham Beverages, 500 ml bottle. Dark purple to black pour with an ever present mocha colored head. Strong aromo of ripening fruit, coffee and chocolate. Solid flavor with day old coffee, baker’s chocolate and plenty of potting soil. Thickish mouthfeel - just enough chalkiness and grit. Excellent Porter.

From a trade with oh6gdx, thanks Patrik.
Bottled(500ml). -Black coloured, cappucino brown head, chicory chocolate nose. Also, strong chicory and chocolate taste with notes of smoke. Rather bitter finish. Quite one-dimensional porter.

Clear dark brown color, big brown head. Good strong porter aroma, coffee, licorice, some roasted malt, dried fruit. Good creamy texture. Roasted taste, bitter, coffee, some chocolat. Very good porter.

Black colored, medium sized beige head. Aroma has sweetness, plums, chocolate and some roastiness, mild alcohol also there. Medium to full bodied. Flavor is richer than aroma: chocolate dominates, roastiness, coffee, sweetness and medium alcohol. Aftertaste dries to have bitter and alcoholic touch, hops there with slight chocolate. Good flavored, slightly too thin aromated porter.
