Mar 20, 2006 Poured from a Growler Pour of amber fringed deep brown, with a urdyd glint. No head. Light salty aroma of oats with some roasted salted peanuts and a woody toast. Flavor adds some light shavings of dark Belgian Chocolate. Light rootbeers tocuhes. A hint of mellow cherries. Palate is a hint of oaky dryness and some silky sweetness. Standard porter, with a little less smoothness and depth than I would prefer. Drinkable, but with weak salty quality. Finishes with a bit of a harsh bitter bite.

Jan 15, 2006 Pours a dark black with little to no head. Aroma of roasted malts with some dark chocolate and coffee present. Very thin body - with unfortunately little to no taste. Very disappointing. Bad batch?

Mar 10, 2005 If you havent been to the "Deepwater Grill", do yourself a favor and go. The porter is not only my favorite "South Shore" beer, but it is by far the best porter I have ever had.

Dec 6, 2004 Appears Black Until Held Up to the Light...Dark Red Coloring with Small Tan Wisps of a Head. Sweet Malt and Coffee Roasts Aroma. Little Sudsy..Seemed a Bit Watery...Dry and Bitter at the End.

Dec 6, 2004 Tasted at the Deepwater Grille. Dark red color with a very thin head. Mildly alcoholic aroma. The taste is consumed with bitter malt and an unrefined alcohol finish. A hint of coffee. Quite thin.
