4/5 rDev -4.8%

Pours a very dark brown with glints of red in the light. Has a creamy light tan head with decent retention. Rich lacing on the glass. Dark roasted malts, sorghum, and dark chocolate aromas. Nice, creamy mouthfeel. Dark chocolate, heavy cream, without the usual coffee acidity one gets from a porter like this one. Nice sweet lactose makes this a pillowy sweet porter. Very good beer.

Serving type: on-tap

4.56/5 rDev +8.6%
look: 4.5 | smell: 4.25 | taste: 4.75 | feel: 4.5 | overall: 4.5

Poured from 22 oz. bomber into pint glass. Served at 50 degrees.

Appearance - dark brown with off-white head that dissipates quickly. Nice lacing.

Aroma - dark malt, chocolate, and hoppy bitterness.

Taste - great balance between malt and hops. A well crafted brew.

Mouthfeel - medium body with lively carbonation.

Overall - a great porter, I will seek this one out again.
