Reviewed from notes.
This was poured into a mug.
The appearance was a black color with a one finger white foamy head that dissipated within about a minute leaving a little bit of lacing running nicely in a speckled sort of way around the sides of the glass.
The smell had a really nice roasty slightly robust coffee to chocolate with a lightly bitter citrus hoppiness in the background.
The taste was mildly bitter, roasty, robust and moderately sweet.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a decent sessionability about it. The carbonation was good for the style and for me.
Overall, I say this was a pretty good porter that I would have again.

On draft at Spacebar in Falls Church VA. Pours a deep cola brown with a tan head. Light chocolate nose. Flavors of cocoa nibs and roasted grain. Light to moderate mouthfeel. Bitter finish.

Pours clear dark brown with a tall. sticky, light tan head. Very soft malt aroma. Lightly sweet with some roast malts, but a lot less than what a good porter should have in my opinion. More like a Schwarzbier.

Aug 2009: Brown 12 oz bottle flown over to me by a Virginia based BA. Poured into a Westmalle chalice glass, one of my favourite tasting glasses. Deep, dark browny/red body with (sadly) a small wisp of a tan half head which soon turned into a thin collar around the glass. Intense dark chocolate aroma, then dry roasted coffee and toasted chocolate malts. The taste copied the smells, only a drier hint to everything and the hops coming in to add a bitterness that bit into my tongue and cheeks. Well carbonated and a good richness considering its alcohol content isn’t trying to rip your head off like some Porters attempt to do. All in all a very pleasant beer and glad it came my way.

Poured dark brown with a full brown head that dissipated slowly. Minimal aroma; a bit of sweet maltiness. Slightly smoky, somewhat bland flavor, with a dry end. A bit oily in mouthfeel. This is an ok beer, but is extremely undistinctive and unmemorable. Actually less like a porter than the St. George American Brown Ale in my opinion.
