Dominant coffee flavor in aroma and first sip. High carbonation at first - I felt the bubbles dancing on my tongue , but it settled down after a while. A very nice brew.

Looks and tastes like a watered down porter - but in a good way! It actually has a very nice flavor that grows on you the further into your glass you go. Good beer.

On tap at the Porterhouse Brewpub. This was the special on the sampler. This was interesting, had that nutty flavor I find appealing in a brown ale. Very nice.

Probably the best Riverhorse brew that I have sampled. Very clean and refreshinging, not to heavy.

On tap at the Porterhouse Brew Pub. Poured a medium brown color with a small tan head. Nutty and roasted aroma and flavors. Fizzy body. Out of the 7 beers I had there tonight, this was my favorite.

Not bad, good malt front, and nice slightly bitter hop finish. Drinkable.

Deep red with a nice head. This is a fairly watery, mild brown ale with little nuttiness. Sort of a Newcastle Brown lite. A good way to introduce newbies to "dark beer" because it tastes as mild as can be! Roasty smell and taste.
