The maple undertone improved greatly as this beer warmed. Weyerbacher’s best by far.

I’m not sure why this is listed as an ale...it’s definitely more a porter beer. Sweet aroma of molasses, brown sugar, and coffee. Very roasty taste, with the molasses, chocolate, and a little faint coffee, with a moderately hoppy finish. An excellent Weyerbacher offering!!

22 oz bottle. Very deep dark brown in color with a nice thick tan head. Roasty aroma. Chocolate notes. Malty and roasty palate. Full bodied. Well balanced beer. Subtle hop character with a roasty bittereness. Nice beer.

22 oz Bottle. Very dark brown, thick tan head. Very roasty aroma, unsweetened chocolate? Nice thick malty roasty palate, with some hops in there complimenting the roasty bitterness. On the thick side of the spectrum. Me likes!

[bottle - 12 oz] Dark black pour with a very tan and puffy head. Nice aroma of chocolate, malts, roasted notes and coffee. The taste is very well blended and smooth. It’s a mixture of chocolate and coffee with hints of roasted malts and a nice bitter coffee finish. One very fine porter.

22 oz This is like a super super porter. Some might say an IMPERIAL porter. But lets not overuse the term imperial. Still, this comes close to the idea. Its bigger and more of everything in a good porter, but still balanced. It looks amazing, smells great, and tastes delicious with no prescence of alcohol whatsoever.

Pours dark and robust-looking with copious head. Smell is somewhat caramelly/molassey. Flavor is strongly caramel with proper levels of hop bitter for a porter. Plenty of mouthfeel, a great beer overall, but could have more chocolatey or roasty maltiness especially for a beer of this gravity.

This beer is very black and it has a hell of alot of head on it. Huge caramel aroma. Has a big caramel malt body to it as well, very thick brew. Most impressive.
