Nov 30, 2009 On tap at the Brewery. Black, nice tan head. Chocolate and coffee, of course, but also a fruity, garpey aroma. Pretty much the same with the flavor, as well. I like the grape note - It makes it unique and tasty. Pretty good stuff.

Nov 12, 2009 Tap @ Wedge Brewing Co.
Black pour. White head. Flavor has a lot of roast. Very sweet roast. Light molasses, eucalyptus, and far spruce. Overly caramelized sugar. It’s just an odd complexity of flavor. Chocolate malts. Huge. Aroma of chicory, herbal hops, chocolate malts, chocolate, hops, a touch of house blend coffee. Simple nose, complex overall. AWESOME! My favorite of Wedge.

Jan 6, 2009 Draught at the brewery. Pours blackish brown with smallish beige head. The aroma is rich chocolate, some dark fruit, and bits of vanilla and toffee. The flavor is bitter chocolate, a little bit of roast and nuts, and some woodiness. The finish is lightly ashy. This is pretty tasty.

Jan 1, 2009 Draft at the brewery. Same great dark brown body and even bigger brown head as the oatmeal stout. Dark fruit aroma was nice. But the flavor had something fruity and sour with biitter coffee flavors. Roast coffee grounds finish. Just cant figure out the sour apple twinge in the flavor. I doesn’t seem like anyone else picked up on it so it could be just something off on my palate.

Nov 21, 2008 Draft at the brewery on 11/1/08. Deep brtown with ruby highlights, and a light tan, fleeting head. Coffee, chocolate, roasted nuts and hints of hops. Medium body and carbonation, smooth, dry. Flavor of burnt sugar initially, followed by a spicy, piney bitterness that was not overwhelming and provided solid balance. This is an excellent porter from a promising new brewer. I’ve had some samples a sips of several of their other beers, but not enough to rate them. Nonetheless, everything I’ve tried seemed well crafted and drinkable, and I’m looking forward to more from them.
