the beer and flaked oats to give a silky smoothness and stiff beer foam.
The chocolate and crystal malts give a rich complex malt flavour and balance to the beer. Our interpretation of this beer is a bit different than most, but still pays
homage to the great Porter beer style.

Schooner on tap at the Observer, The Rocks. Obsidian black with thin white head. Coffee, dark chocolate nose. Medium body, flat mouthfeel. Taste is coffee bitter. Finish is coffee. Unfortunately I don’t like coffee so (again) my overall score is lower. A bit fruity but all I can taste is coffee.

On tap at Rocks Brewing, pours a deep dark mahogany with a small beige head. Aroma brings out toasted malt upfront, not much else. Flavour brings out toasted malt and little dry cocoa. Robust and well-balanced. Nice stuff.

While my initial taste in 2013 was fairly mediocre, I revisited this beer at the Lord Raglan in 2015, and found it to be quite a bit better. In particular, it had a fuller body and a more pronounced chocolate note, with moderate bitterness...just a more balanced, rounded beer.
