Port Brewing Old Viscosity

Brewed by Port Brewing/Lost Abbey
Style: American Strong Ale
San Marcos, California USA

2008 Bottle - Pours dk brown, motor oil, decent brown head...aroma is brown sugar malt, oak and a bit of smoke...flavour blew me away, terrific balance of bitter/malt/alcohol...didn’t even know it was 10% until afterwards...my first taste of Pizza Port and set the bar unbearably high...

Tasted @ the Uber Tavern in Seattle.
Black colored brew. Chocolate malts, dark fruits in the aroma. Oak, bourbon, chocolate malts, coffee and roasted, smoked flavor. Smooth and creamy. Nice.

22 oz. btl from Bevmo. First thought: Is this a bad bottle? There’s no carbonation AT ALL. It poured thick and black, and flat like a (insert your joke here. I cannot). I poured the last half rough to get any reaction. I got an 8th of an inch of dark foam that was gone quickly. Barely any residue left. I’m scared to try it because I don’t want to find out it’s bad. Here goes. Smell is deep and malty. Coffee. Thick, pungent, and thank God, it’s good. Definite alcohol taste on 2nd drink, that wasn’t there on first one. My tongue is going numb. This is one f’ing strong tasting beer. Ilike it.

Black, rich, creamy, Dark fruits, roasted malts, dark chocolate, vanilla, oak, coffee, molasses, alcohol, slight nutty, hop finish. Thanks AgentSteve.

Pours thick. Nice smoky aroma, the bourbon barrel aging softens the alchohol. Good roasted grains, chocalate almost like a good imp. stout.

A nice ale that is very roasty and burnt. A bit thin tasting to me, but it was nice due to the high alcohol. I kept getting some crisp dark bread flavor.

22oz. bottle. Pours a dark, dark black, very little head. Smells of dark fruit, very strong. Wow, that’s a powerful taste, just coats the tongue with all sorts of flavor, heavy and slightly sweet, I love it.

Bottle. This poured dark black and oily, with a wispy sort of white foam, very, very thin. The nose was strongly related to the barrel it was aged in, along with chocolate, and molasses, and other good things.This things thick, not exactly a summer beer, but thats what air conditioning is for right? Very rich flavor, which followed the nose and maybe added some coffee too. Definitely syrupy, with a light subtle fizz to it. I really liked it, and enjoyed the bitter finish. I could see wanting to lay a bunch of this down, as there was a fairly strong alcohol bite in the finish.
