A solid, remarkably smooth, and excitingly complex brew. The nose gives away little--simply rich, roasted malts. The beer poured deep copper into my glass, with an impressive caramel head. The flavor was caramel and sweet-clover hops, light, light honey, nutty malts, and sweet wheat flavors. Good job gentlemen.

Sep 6, 2008 Pours dark brown with a small tan coloured head. Aromas funky, grainy with a touch of roast. Palate shows same, dark roasted grain with a relatively clean finish. Interesting...

Sep 5, 2008 As expected plenty of wheat and grain hits the nose. I rally quite like the flavours; more farmyard, wheat, and whacky super-friendly weird malts. Crap note eh?

Aug 31, 2008 Bottle. Thin black color with thin offwhite head. Aroma is of dark maltiness with a slight licorice. Sweet notes of malt with a dark coffee note are followed by a quick sweet finish. An interesting take on the porter style.

Aug 13, 2008 22oz bottle from Casa De Oro Liquor in Spring Valley. Pours a cloudy dark brown with a reddish hue. A small beige ring for a head. Nice aromas of chocolate and dark pit fruits. A fairly light bodied porter, a bit underrated in my opinion.

Jul 28, 2008 I had the Morimoto version. Pours dark brown with an off white head. Faint nutty malt nose. Light and crisp, hops, and nuts are present in the body. It is refreshing especially for a porter.
