Feb 17, 2009 Bottle from a grocery in Seattle. The beer pours used motor oil black with a medium light brown head that recedes slowly. Thick rings of lacing on the glass, and a good sized chunk of sludge in the bottom of the bottle. Aroma of roasted malt and bittersweet chocolate. Full body with lots of roasted malt and coffee flavor plus some dark chocolate and hops. The finish is espresso and chocolate with a mild warming alcohol and hops aftertaste. Very good overall, makes me want to track down the Older Viscosity even more.

Feb 15, 2009 Updated: Feb 17, 2009bottled: A nice black pour with a thin head. The aroma, chocolate with a hint of bourbon. Taste was burnt malt with bourbon accents and a slight bitterness finished with a slight alcoholic burn. Very pleasant over all. I will seek this one out again.

Feb 13, 2009 Pours cola-brown; thin head. Can’t make out much in aroma; crystal malt? Flavor - yes, crystal malt; mildly roasty. Fairly potent brew. Roasted nuts. Not bad but it doesn’t stand out; I also don’t care in general for this crystal flavor in darker beers.

Feb 8, 2009 bomber from archer liquors poured into a snifter. pours a vert dark brown, nearly black, with a thin, light tan head and solid lacing. aroma is somewhat unique. somewhere between an ale and a stout. aromas of dark fruits and black coffee dominate with hints of roasted pistachio, dark chocolate, and a bit of smoke round out the nose. flavor is initially quite boozy but as it warms the true flavors really come out. roasty black coffee, some bitter chocolate, and cinnamon are balanced by a decent hop bitterness and a lasting bourbon like aftertaste. palate is full bodied and slightly thick with medium carbonation and a big alcohol warmth. after a subpar experience with hop-15, this has redeemed Port in my eyes. damn nice beer.
