stoutchap (293), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jul 8, 2007 On tap at Piece. Great Porter! Arrived looking all dark and mysterious with a thin foamy ring of mocha colored foam. A smooth roasty nose. Greets the tongue with chocolate and smoke, a slightly tart middle rides on the back of the malt overtones, and a subtle licorice flavor at the end. Very solid mouthfeel for a porter - almost like a stout. A good amount of carbonation and a very pleasant finish. Really solid porter. (And great pizza too! Piece is a must see in Chicago!) lb4lb (1377), Austin, Texas, USA Apr 28, 2008 Another fantastic beer on tap at Piece. Pour is black with a filmy tan head. Smell is rich dark malt, smoky coffee, and dry chocolate. Taste is rich, roasty, smoky and robust flavorwise. Prickly carbonation with a medium body and this one comes highly recommended. llyons37 (23), Chicago, Illinois, USA Jan 1, 2008 Out of a take home growler. Dark black pour, tan colored head that dissipates slowly. Medium body & flavor of roasted malts & chocolate. A little lighter than the Flat Iron Stout but equally delicious! Eyedrinkale (3105), Beer Town, New York, USA Apr 25, 2008 Lots of coffee is this really balanced porter. Nice and chocolaty with a nice lingering roasty flavor. Walt (2268), Chicago, Illinois, USA Apr 19, 2008 Pour is black with a thin tan head...smell is smokey and richly roasty with coffee...taste is sweet with a strong undertone of smoke...well done...
