Mar 11, 2008 Updated: Mar 17, 2008One of my old standbys, I love this one. Roasty, a nice bit of caramel malt, creamy mouthfeel, assertive yet balanced hopping. Chocolatey nose, sweetness gives way to the nugget bitterness quickly. Lingering roastiness like I just had an espresso. So delicious- I have many associated memories attached to this beer from the past 10 or 15 years. A benchmark for the west coast US style porter, consistency endures at this brewery, I hope they brew forever.

Mar 8, 2008 Nice roasted aroma, smells of a delicious earthy coffee. Pours very dark brown with a thick and creamy tan head. Strong initial roasted coffee/week chocolate taste that goes down smooth and creamy. Maybe a few earthy smoked notes in between, leaves primarily a dry slightly bitter note on the tongue. A very decent porter.

Mar 8, 2008 Black, light beige head with nice lacing. Aroma a bit chocolaty with salty liquorice, quite smooth. Flavor is burned and salty with some herbal hops. Finishes dry and bitter. Medium bodied, soft and even a bit creamy mouthfeel. Drinkable porter.

Feb 29, 2008 Pours a mid-shaded brown with a little brownish white head. Aroma of Chocolate, coffee, roasted barley and brown sugar. Taste of chocolate, malt, with a creamy slightly dry finish. A decent porter, but nothing special in my book.
