A very big style of a porter. This has some really nice chocolate and coffee notes. It was quite cold when I was served, and the aroma was almost nihil but I think it would be quite aromatic as it warmed up. Very dark black, thick and almost oily, chocolate cake mouthfeel and aftertaste. Almost desert like, very rich and roasted.

a Robust Porter. very toasted but not burnt tasting and medium hoppiness. Not very aromatic but I don’t think a Robust Porter is supposed to be. I think its an average Porter. I’m having it out of a keg at home at 47°F. It has a thick, Lt Br head that lasts and leaves lacing as thick as the head. Black opaque body. Full-City-Roast type Coffee flavor. I would fill my keg with this again but not for a while.

sampled from a pint at the brewpub. Dark brown beer with a small off white head, that dissapears fast. The aroma is quite pleasant,chocolaty malts ,slightly roasty. Quite a good tasting porter, the "roastyness" is more apparent in the taste than in the aroma, quite malty. Nice and smooth on the palate. Overall very drinkable , a nice porter.

Typical porter look, very dark brown with some amber showing through. Nice and chocolatey, smooth, average porter. A little thin.
