On a four Beer Flight on 2nd April 2025 while in the Best Brews Taproom (Lake Havasu City) I had two different flights during the session. Dark brown with a beige head. Pretty sweet with vanilla and cherries in both the aroma and taste. Interesting little number all round and new brewery to me too.

Draft at the Yavapai Tavern in the GC. Black with a creamy, beige head. Aroma of cherry pop and chocolate. Taste is mildly bitter with a roasted tone. A cherry sweetness lingers underneath. Medium bodied, mild carbonation. Ok, but the cherry borders on cloying.

Pours dark brown with a small tan head. It smells of roast malt, coffee, and cherries. The flavor is pretty well balanced with roast malt m, chocolate, and cherries. I’m not getting vanilla much, if at all. I wish it was a more robust porter, but it’s pretty good.

12 oz. can from Total Wine, Scottsdale, AZ. Pours a clear mahogany color with a HUGE beige head and annoyingly great retention. Good lacing. Dark fruit and malt aroma. The flavor is predominantly dark charred maltsand a little chocolate, with the vanilla and cherry lending support in the finish. Medium body with a semi creamy mouthfeel. Not bitter. A good porter that would be better without the cherry and vanilla in my opinion.

Taster at the Grand Canyon Winery. Pours black, with a big, foamy, tan head. The nose is espresso beans, light jam, roasted peanuts, and molasses. Sweet and lightly bitter. Medium to heavy body, with a sharp, sticky feel. This is a nice, lightly fruited porter.
