This medal winning porter pours dark brown with a rich tan head. A medium malt sweetness balances with the hops to produce slightly chocolatey overtones and a smooth finish. "Keeping the wheel rolling."

Aroma was of chocolate and coffee with a bit of roasted malt. Appearence was very dark with a good head that went away pretty quick. Tastes like Fuller’s London Porter but with a little more alcohol. Watery, east to drink and doesn’t coat your mouth. Not too subtle, but not to strong, a good difinitive porter.

This is indeed a tasty beverage. A dark creamy apperance, with a slightly off balance head, that would stop and then start growing again. Good feel in the mouth, with flavors of hot chocolate, toffee and coffee, but very subtle, they did a good job with this one, on not making any of the flavors dominate over the others. A good starter porter.

Dark brown with lighter brown edges, a foamy head and good lace. Chocolate and roast malts in the nose, some toffe. Chocolate is more prominent as with the roast in the flavors. A hint of alcohol lingers under the rest of the flavor. Syrup like palate with a very nice chocolate finish.

Beautiful dark body, nice head. Aromas of chocolate and coffee with some nice hops. Smooth, sweet, roasty, and slightly bitter.

Pours a deep brown with an ample tan head. Taste is rich with chocolate, coffee, and roastiness. There is also a medium amount of hop to finish. Solid porter.

On tap at the brewpub in Idaho. Pours a almost pure black color with a large white head and lots of lacing. The aroma was rich; roasted, almost smoky malts, chocolates and coffee. The flavor was great; a strong mix of coffee, chocolates and a powerful roasted malt. Lots of flavor. Very nice.
