Flying dog - Scottish Porter “Road Dog” 6.50
Smells sour a bit like stale brew. Really good sticky excellent head though. Tastes dark. Kinda bitter. Pretty malty and not too hoppy but it's present. Kinda like what guiness ought to be but not as bitter. Just enough bitter. Smooth. Not overcarbonated. Color black with red hues. Looks like coca cola dark. Drink poured from a 12 oz bottle to a 1 liter beer mug and drink at roughly 15 under room temp. Mouth feel – good. Head has some good staying power some lacing. Tastes like one of the best beers I’ve had in my life. Other features are a bit lacking- the head be a bit better as in stickier or tastier.

look: 3 | smell: 3.25 | taste: 3.25 | feel: 3.25 | overall: 3.25

Appearance: It looks as expected. This beer dark reddish-brown with a bit of purple or fushia hint. Does not retain it's head.

Smell: Woody smell with a hint of cinnamon

Taste: A woody taste, like it smells, a bit fizzy. Complexity is just simple...the same throughout.

Mouth feel: Pretty easy to drink but not incredibly because of acidic coffee tase. Nothing amazing.

Serving type: bottle

Basically a solid porter I would drink again because I like drinking local.

Poured from 12oz bottle into snifter a very dark brown with about an inch head which subsided rather quickly. Aroma was rather weak-slight chocolate. Mouthfeel is a light carb. Taste of coffee and toasted malt, there is a slight bitterness but it's pretty easy drinking. Average porter
