on tap-pours a retaining thin light brown head that laces and black color with red tint. Aroma is dark malt-cocoa/molasses. Taste is dark malt-cocoa/molasses/some coffee, secondary dry earthy hops. OK carbonation. Right on target for style, just not my taste.

This arrives at the table with what remains of a nice head of light brown creaminess. Good aroma of chocolate. The flavor is well balanced and dominated by the chocolate found in the aroma. Smooth, medium bodied, and overall a pleasing well crafted Porter. Maybe Al has tweaked the recipe, but in any case, this batch was a better rate than the ones put up previously by others. A good solid brew all around.
