Port Brewing Hot Rocks Lager

22 oz bottle from Abe’s. Poured a deep ruby/brown with a large frothy beige head. Aroma was far more complex then I was expecting with notes of chocolate, wood, nutts and spoiled grape jelly. The body was mediumd to slightly fuller with average carbonation and a slightly creamy finish. Flavor has notes of chocolate, old nuts, bad fruit preserves, wet bread and a hint of rotting strawberries. Interesting beer and far more complex then the pale golden lager I was anticipating.

Ruby black with thin white halo of head. Aroma is melanoidins and raisins. Taste is an odd combination of dry breadiness with raisins, cherries and treacle with residual minerality. $6/22oz

Bottle pours brown-red with a minimal tan colored head. Aroma is caramel, rye, and burnt molasses. Carries over into the flavor as well, with additional notes of cola, red apple, and a certain nutty yeastiness. Starts sweet and finishes dry. Nice overall balance and definately no lack of interesting characteristics.
