Foncer, beaucoup de chocolat... manque un peu de corps mais c est une bonne porter quand meme. Dark, lots of chocolate... lacking in body but still a decent porter.

22oz bottle. Active cola head that quickly diminishes to a nice ring. Sweet malts on the nose, maybe a little dry smoke and yea some skunk. Frightening taste of sour on the first sip, then to bittersweet chocolate. actually, closest to real chocolate i’ve had in a beer. The sweet-sour start is just too weird for me, especially on a porter. Pretty light mouthfeel with crisp carbonation.

strong kahlua-ish aroma, but not much else. Opaque darkest brown, with thin dark tan head. A little chocolate sweetnes, but over-balanced by a surprising sourness. Maybe my friend (no beer geek) inadvertently got a bad bottle.

Thanks to Skyview for this one. Low carbonation. A little sour. Chocolate, some hops, and very light tea. Generally I find porters boring. This one has something to offer.

Another one from Skyview. Dark brown color with no head. Sweet chocolate aroma. As the name states, plenty of chocolate flavor. Sweet malt and a little lactose help accentuate it.
