Three Floyds Alpha Klaus Christmas Porter

Pours brownish/black with thick tan head. Aroma of chocolate and roasted malts. Taste of chocolate, hops, and roasted malt. Thick mouthfeel. Nice bite of alcohol. One of the top 2 porters I’ve ever had. Not a big porter fan and this was very good. Great beer.

Shared by Big Bruce the infamous canuck! Another good beer by 3F. Bottle about three years old. Even though porters are not my favorite this beer kicked butt. Dark in color with a big head. Taste was super intense roasted malt. Nice touch of chocolate, it lacked on the hops but I think that was due to its age. Medium texture, overall very enjoyable! Thanks again Bruce for sharing!

Bottled. Awesome looking beige head that caps off the black liquid. Plenty of carbonation bubbling to the surface. Impressive spots and lacing throughout. Damn this looks good. Bitter cacao aroma with subtle coffee behind it and blackened wood with smoke. Nutty and roasty flavor of chocolate malt that follows the aroma pretty well, with tones of graham cracker and citrus. I was expecting a bit fuller body, but this suits the style very well. High alpha acid hops in the finish. Thoroughly enjoyable.

Bottle at home ... Thanks to tjthresh for this ... Deep red black ... rich smokey sugery roast malt nose ... loads of Chocolate ... loads of roast malts ... some alcohol ... quite a dry finnish with a coffee linger... Quite nice... bit bitter in linger.

This porter was amazing. It poured a gorgeous brown with a thing white head. The aroma was nuts, roasted malt, chocolate, and a tinge of hops. The taste is chocolate and marshmallow, roasted malts, and spice. Amazing, perhaps the best christmas beer there is.
