22oz bottle pours a translucent mahogany amber with some very fizzy beige head. Nose of dried malt, cocoa powder, cracker, ancho chile, raisin. Flavor is malty, cracker, toast, chocolate, raisin, black pepper. The high level of carbonation is distracting. Peppery finish.

Bottle thanks to Travlr, thanks Gene! Poured a dark black color with a huge, gushing tan head. Woah, wow. Aroma was some funky notes, with some notes of bitter malts, chocolate notes. Flavor is a touch infected chocolate, bitter malts. Wish it was better.

Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma has notes of malt, chocolate, caramel and cacao. Taste is medium sweet and light to medium bitter with a long chocolate and cacao finish. Body is medium, texture is oily, carbonation is soft.

Bottle, 22oz. It pours an enourmous dark beige head over a dark brown beer. Lots of dark chocolate and bonfire on the nose. Coffee and roasted malts too. The flavor has bonfire, dark chocolate and coffee, as well as a nice bitterness. Bitterness from both hops and heavily roasted malts it seems. Full body, a tad too much carbonation, and quite dry. Lots of dark chocolate and coffee in the finish. A pretty pleasant chocolate porter, well worth a try if you ever find it. 130822
