Oct 20, 2008 Like a chocolate phosphate. This beer is a head monster. Aromas of dark chocolate and seltzer, much like the flavors. Thin with a clean finish.

Oct 19, 2008 This is a great porter that is black and thin, but with rich flavors like a strong coffee. Not much body at all to it, but the strong coffee, toffee, and burnt flavors are very rewarding and nullify the lack of body. This is a great beer.

Oct 18, 2008 Bottle pours black w/ dark brown highlights and cola colored 1inch plus head that collapsed immediately to a few bubbles dotting the surface. Aromas of sweet malt, caramel/toffee, bittersweet chocolate and molasses. Flavor has lots of bittersweet chocolate & cocoa with a faint touch of sour just before the lightly bitter finish. Body is medium and fairly silky w/ moderately low carb. Overall a very nice brew.

Oct 12, 2008 Bottle pours a dark brown that shows ruby hues when held to light. Creamy tan head leaves sheet lacing. Aroma has nutty almond and a hint of chocolate. Creamy medium body has an ideal soft carbonation. Taste has the same nuttiness as the aroma, with notes of milk chocolate, grassy hops, and some dark roasty malt bitterness. Very solid.
