Bottle shared at Craig’s. Pours transparent brown with a creamy tan head. The nose has some toasted grains, nips of earth and brown sugar. Medium sweet flavor, lightly smokey, with burnt toast, more earth and grains. Medium bodied with average carbonation. Moderate sweetness to finish with still more toasted grains, bittersweet cocoa, mellow earth. Not bad.

bottle - Pours very dark brown with a fluffy tan head. The aroma is of chocolate, rye, and mild hops. The flavor includes well hopped bitterness, rye dryness, chocolate, and roast malt. It’s medium bodied, balanced, and overall a good combination of flavors. The bottle was at 800 Degrees in Fort Wayne awhile back but I know they don’t have it anymore.

22 ounce bottle form Wine Warehouse in Charlottesville, VA, opened 6/28/11. Pours a reddish brown color with a large frothy tan head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of chocolate, rye, minty and floral hop notes. The taste is Kind of an odd leathery, minty taste, if that makes any sense. Almost like menthol. Some roast and herbal notes in there as well. Medium bodied. Weird beer, and I’ll be drinking it rather quickly.

Location: Bottle at jcos's place pre-Homecoming 2010, 10/29/10
Aroma: The nose has some bread and rye notes, pine hops, caramel, and some spice
Appearance: It pours a dark brown, almost black, color with a lighter brown head
Flavor: The flavor is rye/bread malts, with caramel malts, and some pine hop bitterness
Palate: This beer is medium bodied leaning a touch toward full, and is actually quite drinkable
Overall Impression: This was a pretty cool beer. I would say that a Black RyePA would be a better way to describe this one then a Porter. Regardless of how you classify it, this was some good stuff, and I'm glad I was able to get the opportunity to sample it.

2010 Bottle thanks to captain cougar. Pours with a near black body with a large and fluffy off-white head. Aromas of rye, citrus hops (orange mainly), cereal, alcohol, brown sugar and light roast. Very floral and pretty estery as well. Flavors of rye, bitter and astringent roast. Husky, acrid, roasty, chalky, messy! Very confusing after such a nice aroma. Creamy carbonation. Something is seriously wrong with the acidic nature and acrid taste of the grain bill.
