Cloudy dark brown - not as deep black as first time, creamy mocha head. The aroma is sweet dark malts with some cooking chocolate, citrus hops, some smelly roast. The taste is medium sweet dark malts sugars not too roasty or dry. Clear citrus hops presence - yep, closer to a (pepery malty) dark IPA than a porter. A good one though.

Draft at Craft Baza. Deep clean brown, almost black, creamy beige head. The aroma is a bit of dark caramel, only slightly roasty / chocolaty, spicy herbal hops and a touch of greener hops too. The taste is moderate round sweet chocolate and dark caramel, firm crisp spicy bitterness. Smooth clean easy drinking body. Might lack some of the malt bill extra-complexity of really fine porters and the hops are still just a bit aggressive. Otherwise, it's almost there. Really good.
