This was poured into a pint glass.
The appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a rim of a mocha to off white bar pourβs kind of head.
The smell had a sweet cocoa bean to powder aroma sliding into some nice roasty coffee beans.
The taste was mainly sweet taking the previously mentioned flavors to town on the sweetness and allowing a delicate creaminess in the flavor.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium in body with a fair sessionability about it. Carbonation rides extremely low allowing a sweet creaminess to be felt on my tongue.
Overall, really nice porter, definitely one of their better beers and one Iβd definitely come back to.

Draft at the brewery, 7/5/15
Dark brown color with a beige head and light lacing. Light aroma, roasted malts and some caramel notes as well. Smooth and drinkable, though a bit thin. Decent.

A dark brown porter with a very thin mocha head. In aroma, smooth chocolate malt with light coffee and vanilla notes, nice. In mouth, a nice sweet fruity chocolate malt with light coffee candy, vanilla, grassy hops, nice. On tap at Vermont Tap House.

Sample glass @ the brewery. Body is nice and full for a standard porter. Flavor is nice roasted malts, burnt espresso bean, charred malts, caramel and milk chocolate. Soft carbonation giving a light creamy texture. Nice medium body leaning on full. Easy to drink with the classic flavor of a porter.
Well-crafted porter and worth a try for sure. Very nice sample flight from this up start brewery, well done folks!

dark brown, light espresso head. Roasty espresso and coffee aroma maybe a touch of vanilla. Interesting banana taste and honeydew melon. weak body but the flavor is nice. Not pushing any boundaries but it is truly a nice porter. vanilla, chocolate, coffee and roasted malts.
