Fairly nice porter. Nothing to scream about, but much much better than a lot of porters I have had. To start, it is never really watery, which wins a lot of points with me. Nice bold aroma for a porter, with bakers chcoclate, malt, and roast. Pours a nice light black. Flavor is much the same as the aroma, with some nice hop notes and some candy swimming around. Maybe a touch of some licorice or dark fruit. A bit underrated I think, this one is pretty damn good.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a thick light brown head. In both the aroma and flavor you get a lot of roast with a bit of an oat character. Pretty bitter. Medium body with fine carbonation. Easy to drink middle of the road porter.

The beer had a great appearance as it was a dark brown with reddish tint on the edges. However, after that it disappointed. The aroma was faint. In the taste it had all the typical porter notes, but just seemed to be a little off and had a slight metallic aftertaste.

Courtesy of bdigi66. Pours with a ridiculous fiver finger thick, bubbly, mocha head. The body is a dark ruddy brown. The aroma is cola and herbal hops with a hint of nutty notes. Light chocolate, toasted malt, cola and a very faint hint of tartness. Tastes much better than I expect from the pour, but still not exactly a great beer int he flavor department.

A dark clear brown porter with a super thick moka head. A light chocolate with off notes of olive. In mouth, a rather simple porter with light coffee notes, short in mouth, signs of infection. Oktoberfest evening at Marc Gratton’s, taste on April 20 2007
