Aug 1, 2008 Tap @ The Silver Dollar in Cody, WY. Pours a dark brown with a large tan head. Nose is a mild blend of roast and coffee before a more intense flavor. Sweet and chocolatey, light roasty notes. Smooth, light bitters in the trailer. Easily the best of the three Red Lodge brews I had in Cody.

Jul 19, 2007 Sampled on draught at Sam’s Tap Room, next to the brewpub in Red Lodge, Montana. Pours an opaque dark brown brew with a thick tan head that slowly dissolves to a tan ring and very attractive lacing. Aroma of toasted dark chocolate malt, dried dark pitted fruits, a touch of molasses and some roasted coffee. Taste is smooth, medium bodied, with a sweet dark chocolate and ripe plum flavor. Finish has a spicey hoppy texture and taste with a long lasting roasted chocolate aftertaste. Quite pleasing porter to reward after traveling the Bear Tooth Pass Highway (US 212).
