look: 4 | smell: 3.5 | taste: 3.5 | feel: 3 | overall: 4

Bottle purchased last month in Vegas. No bottling date

A- dark brown with a two finger fluffy head that faded slow and left nice lacing

S- bittersweet chocolate, grassy malt, and a slight earthy/metallic hop

T- standard chocolate malt taste for a porter, nice bitterness from the hops, and a slightly bitter coffee finish

M- More like an English brown body. Light and crisp with a little too much carbonation

D- Overall, it's a good drink if you want something that's not going to challenge your palate, but not really going to insult it either.

Poured a thin head on a black body.
The aroma is roasted and burnt malt, strong on the burnt part. It's bold and I like it.
The taste has a good burnt malt to it with a touch of cream to balance it out. One sided but pretty good.
The texture is smooth with moderate carbonation.
Enjoyable if you like a bold porter.

look: 3.75 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 3.75 | feel: 3.75 | overall: 3.5

Appearance a deep dark brown with a dark brown half finger of foam on top that doesnt linger.

Aroma- chocolate roast grain I get cinnamon and nutmeg. A feint whiff of coffee

Taste- soem coffee even a little bit of smoke on the front end. some cocoa and even a touch of sweetness, the hops more or less balance out of this one. Not piney so much as earthy and herbal.

Mouthfeel- drier than I expected for a porter, medium/full bodied not so heavy in the mouth you couldnt have another.

Overall- not a flashy porter but not bad, I could have a few of them with this light dry finish. I think this would taste really good with baked goods. I dunno why but a cinnamon roll would compliment this very nicely.

A: Pours pretty much black with a thin light brown head.

S: Light roasted malt and coffee with some chocolate covered banana and some powdery cocoa.

T: Pretty similar to the smell. Light roasted malt. Traces of coffee, some light char and smoke and hints of dark fruit and chocolate. Mouthfeel is medium. Pretty good but nothing remarkable.

I like a diverse selection of beers and rarely have the same one twice.

Porter was a poured from a 1 pt 6oz bottle which yielded a very appealing deep dark brown chocolate color.

Aroma of malty coffee and chocolate

Taste was similar but with a hint of smoke

This porter was a little more carbonated which I liked and added to the mouthfeel

Overall a pretty good porter which I would drink two in a row.
