Nov 18, 2008 Bottle from Beerman6686. Poured a dark brown with a small head. Aroma of roasted malt and hops. This is more hopped than most porters. Flavor was a little tame and mouth a little thin. Roasted malts in the nose are not as big in the taste. Finish is bitter. Not a bad brew.

Oct 25, 2008 12oz bottle. Pours a dark brown with a 1 inch tan head. Aroma of coffee and roasted barley. Surprising amount of hop nose for a porter. Flavor is very much like the nose, with a roasty coffee presence and a bit too much hop. Would like to keep one for a year or so and see if it changes anything.

Oct 23, 2008 12 ounce bottle in pint glass. Dark brown/black with lasting tan head and lace. Fruity roasted chocolate and yeast aroma. Roasted chocolate coffee dark fruit and mild smoke flavor with medium bitterness. Medium body and carbo. Nice and complex enough for a session porter.

Oct 23, 2008 Aroma is moderate dark sweet malts, some sweet fruit spice. It’s appearance is a dark body, little beige head. It’s flavor is of black patent malts, a flaover of coffee or extra roasted malts, with some bitter chocolate adjuncts. A bit astringent and a little thin. Ok.
