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

On tap at the Funky Buddha grand opening. Newly dubbed OP Porter. Served in an oversized snifter.

Appearance - Black with a nice khaki head. Good lacing and surface wisps. Retains well.

Smell - Nice roast. Chocolate. Mild lactose, but noticeable.

Taste - Sweet up front. Roasty dark chocolate. Lactose kicks in behind it. Mild roast and hop bitterness rounds it out. Lingering lactose sweetness.

Mouthfeel - Medium body. Well carbobated. Easy drinking porter.

Overall - I can't help that I don't love lactose. This does it well, though.

Serving type: on-tap

First had: on tap at Funky Buddha, Boca Raton, FL

Hmm. I'm not sure what went wrong with this one. It's highly rated, and a base beer for many FB brews, but there was definitely something amiss when I sampled it. I tried being as generous as I could here, but honestly, I couldn't even finish a sampler of this.

Dark brown-black pour, with a thin ring of off-white bubbles that didn't retain much but left a little lacing on the glass. Nose was on the sweeter side, aromas of yeast, nutty malts, thin cocoa. Taste was weird...almost lagerish, grainy bitterness, verging on vegetal, like strained veggie water, yeast, a bit of roasty malt character, but just strange and off-putting overall. Infected? Or maybe I got a bad pour? Not sure. Light-medium body. Whatever the problem with this was, I was definitely not going back for seconds.

On-tap at the brewpub.

Beer is dark brown, almost black. Has a small off-white head on top. with good lacing.

Smell contains lactose, roasted malt and a good amount of vanilla.

Taste is nice. Vanilla. roasted malt, milk chocolate, burnt caramel. Quite creamy. A bit of anise. Nice big flavour.

Full bodied, moderate to highly carbonated. Smooth under the carbonation, quite velvety.

Overall, really nice. A very good porter.

Served on tap in a shaker glass at the brewery.

A - jett black with a 2 finger tan frothy head with great retention and excellent lacing.

S - chocolate notes, with a touch of smoke, coffee, a bit of earthy

T - Coffee forward porter with great chocolate notes and early moderately bitter hops

M - Full body, moderately carbonated, chewy and smooth.

O - I thought this was one of their better standard brews.
