Nov 27, 2008 This stuff is good. Pours black with a really nice tan head. Aroma is roasted malts, lots of sugar, and chocolate. Flavor is smoky and almost a little grainy. Lots of sweet caramel and chocolate too though. Finishes quite dry with slightly acidic malt hint. Quite tasty brew, but definitely a sipper.

Nov 27, 2008 (Bottle). Sweet caramel chocolate aroma. Black body, small brown head. Flavor is malty, sweet fruit, coffee, caramel and chocolate, also with a lot of roastedness. Finish is roasty and somewhat bitter. Complex and powerful.

Nov 27, 2008 Updated: Nov 29, 2008(10/11/08) Bottle drank in my hostel room in Chicago. Opaque black with medium bubbly light-brown head that falls rather quick. Aroma of heavily roasted malt, a bit chocolate, light smokiness, some ground coffee notes and a bit of alcohol. Sweet roasty flavor with light herbal notes, some fruitiness, a bit of nutty notes, some coffee, acidic malt hints and some alcohol. Finishes dry. Good but not as good as I was hoping.

Nov 27, 2008 I am not a huge fan of porters, but damn, this is one fine beer and worth a try. Pours a very dark brown with a tan head. Aroma and flavor of roasted malt, chocolate, dark fruit, and some coffee. Very smooth, I am going to have to buy another bottle to have around.

Nov 27, 2008 amazing beer, hard to believe that it fits into the porter category.
8% abv.
Pours black with brownish head.
Aroma of extreme nice roastiness and chocolate.
Taste is roasted coffee, with grainy oats and chocolate. Loaded with some nice malts. A little on the strong side for a porter, but highly enjoyable quaff.
