Aug 21, 2009 From the Jug at the Pumphouse Brewery & Restaurant, Longmont 08/10/2008 (As Pyro Espresso Porter ABV 5.1%)
Big coffee aroma. Dark coloured and smooth on the palate with a dry and lasting full coffee roast finish.

Feb 18, 2007 Draught.
Head is fully lasting (nitro).
Body is dark brown to black.
Aroma is lightly to moderately malty (coffee, roasted grain, dark chocolate), with notes of chalk and minerals.
Flavor is lightly to moderately sweet, lightly acidic, lightly bitter.
Finish is lightly sweet, lightly acidic, lightly to moderately bitter.
Light to medium body, watery/creamy texture, soft carbonation.
Nice wallop of coffee in the nose, but nitrogen kills any excitement this might have offered. The nitro madness really, really, really must stop.
