Feb 16, 2009 Bottle. Perhaps my mistake was drinking this immediately after having had a Founders porter. This, in contrast, seemed anemic. But after awhile, it picked up a little steam. Still, a rather thin, lightly roasted porter. Dark brown pour with tan head, mostly diminishing. The aroma had hints of roasted malt, caramel, sugar and chocolate. The flavor was moderately sweet throughout, too sweet, in fact. Had light tastes of caramel and chocolate. Finished dry with a slight tartness. Light to medium body with a watery texture and moderate carbonation.

Dec 14, 2008 Bottle thanks to tronraner. Pours a muddy dark brown color with a small white head. The aroma is sweet nuts, toasted malt, and some chocolates. A sweet flavor of roasted coffee, loads of malt, some grains perhaps. Very nice. A easygoing decent porter.

Oct 30, 2008 Draft at Pigeon Forge brewpub. Opaque with a small head that disappears quickly. Aroma of chocolate vegetables. Tastes of sour chocolate vegetables. Nice nutty and chocolate aftertaste is the better part. Slightly better as it warmed up from the 35F frosty mug it was served in. Medium body was watery and lightly tingly.
