Got this at the brewpub before watching my Wake Forest Demon Deacons take it to the Heels in football. Dark black with a typical nitrogen head. Heavily roasty aroma and flavor with a hint of chocolate. Pretty good

Draught at the brewpub. This beer is a variation on the porter that they usually have on tap, and is a defintie improvement. Opaque black with a thick tan head that laced the glass. Nose is a little roasty with some chocolate. Flavor is similar. Smooth and full bodied with low carbonation. Very good beer.
