Jul 31, 2009 (trade with Suttree) Good looking tan foam head which lasts for awhile. Ultra dark body. Light doesn’t pass through.Flavor has somewhat roasty, but nice sweet malt is more prevelent. Definitely a nice porter.

Jul 21, 2009 Bottle thanks to Frumpty Dumpty, about 1 1/2 old. Surprisingly not a bottle bomb. Opaque black with small to medium, creamy beige head. Aroma is sweeter roast, tobacco, some cherry, really the only signs of oxidation. Same flavor of slight cherry with roast, coffee, tobacco, off-dry, slight dark fruit like raisin. Medium body and light carbonation that fades to creaminess. A really nice porter from a brewery that produces really amazing dark beers.

Jul 19, 2009 Bottle. Pours dark brown, minimal head. Aroma is of coffee and sour malts. Flavor is complex with chocolate, coffee, raisins, citrus and bread. Thick body. Reasonably dry finish. This porter is SOLID.

Jul 9, 2009 Draft at Taco Mac’s. Not a bad beer.
Slight head with good retention. Dark, medium bodied porter appearance.
Taste: malty, charcoal, and sweetness begin with a dry smooth, perhaps mildly hoppy after tasted. The smoothness is valuable in this beer. A personal bias would be more body to the beer, though Duck Rabbit is anything but lacking.

Jul 9, 2009 Bottle from StFun (Thanks!) Clear dark brown pour, medium carbonation with plenty of bitter chocolate/roasted malt on the nose. Flavor was light chocolate, then some vanilla and finished effervescent/smoky. Another well done DR offering!!
