Odell Cutthroat Porter

Brewed by Odell Brewing Company
Style: Porter
Fort Collins, Colorado USA

Bottle; Nose of coffee and chocolate malts; transparent dark brown with a samll tan head; flavor is roasted malts and coffee, with a little bit of hops.

Pours a nice dark color with lacing present, although not exactly spectacular. Roasted malts, dark chocolate with coffee pull through but it’s a bit ho-hum for me. The "been there, done that" type of porter. Not bad by any means, but nothing to write home about.

bottle via trade with kenb. Aroma: Slightly sweet roasted malt aroma with a strong coffee presence. Some coffee, toasted nuts, and a touch of dried fruit, too. Appearance: Dark brown with small chestnut highlights. Light beige head was full and foamy with good retention. Nice lacing. Flavor: Toasted malt upfront with a bunch of coffee following. Some light breadiness peeks out in the middle and a bit of pine right before the finish. Medium bitterness into the finish, as well. Palate: Medium bodied and a little watery. High carbonation wipes the palate before all the flavors can gel. Overall: A good porter, but need a bit more fullness in flavor and a bit less carbonation. Good stuff, despite those small problems.

Bottle at Stockholm Beerfestival. Black coloured with a beige head. Roasted aroma of coffee and cocoa powder. Light roasted flavour of coffee and chocolate with notes of smoke.

Dark pour with nice tan head. The sweet aroma presents notes of roasted malts, and chocolate. The flavor is sweet with a nice bitterness to the finish. The finish remains sweet and moderately acidic. Medium body with a lively carbonation. This is a solid, tasty porter.

thanks to kenb for this one. Very nice nose bitter chocolate and roasted coffee. Looks great in the glass :deep dark brown with a bit of tan foam. This is a nice Porter. The smooth taste is complex and damn nice. rich chocolate.Nice

This beer poured with a nice tan, 4 finger head. The color is dark and murky. Dark, bitter chocolate aroma. It starts out sweet and ends with a bitter edge at the back of the tongue. Plenty of carbonation and so the beer wants to jump around on the tongue as it heads for the throat. Enjoyed the beer.

Pours a nice brownish black color. Aromas of espresso, chocolate, and a hint of bitter smoke. Flavor has a burnt chocolate/coffee taste to it, nice touch of creaminess coming in at the end. Damn fine porter.
