Nov 6, 2009 Bottle. Pours a deep, dense black with a nice, creamy deep beige head. Aroma is a thin ribbon of roasted chocolate bits, dark chocolate, and a touch of coffee ground. Flavor is a chocolate and coffee covered roasted raspberry, with a nice finish of regular coffee. Mouthfeel initially is scratchy but finishes thick and coating. A pleasant surprise from this brewer.

Nov 5, 2009 22oz bottle. Pours black with a moderate slow dissipating head tan head. No lacing. Tastes of roasted barley with moderately bitter hops. I prefer the fuller taste of an imperial stout, but this is good for a strong porter.

Nose is metallic raisinettes,
Taste is pretty good, a little metallic taste, raisins, hints of chocolate, but mostly purple fruits and alcohol. Hints of acidic and booziness.
Not very good, would drink at a bar but no intentionally get a bottle again.

Oct 8, 2009 22oz bottle shared by riversideAK. Roasty robust malty chocolate nose with touches of coffee and Liquorice. Wow, very viscous on the palate. Deeply roasted and fairly sweet. Bitter sweet chocolate, with good bittering. Tons of depth going on here, yet drinkable. Nice stuff that I would say is under the radar.

Jul 7, 2009 22 oz. bottle. Pours a thick mocha head of long duration, over a black/brown body (SRM 30).......nose of coffee, molasses, toffee, chocolate, bit of hop....taste is initially rich heavily molasses type sweet malts with mild almost balancing hops coming in, mildly astringent finish......mouth feel is thick, chewy, heavy, carbonation medium. A very thick rich heavy brew that is a bit too sweet to be completely balanced.
