Bottle. One of a sixpack brought over by a friend from Loveland, CO A nice malty nose, with overtones of earthiness and wet grass. Pours a deep mahogany brown with a tight creamy head. An initial sharpness in taste gives way to a sweet creaminess. Black cherries, molasses and plain chocolate turning to latte. A soft carbonation that just caresses the tongue. Have absolutely loved this beer ever since I first tasted it – 12 years ago now.

Thick creamy beige head stayed on a near black, finely carbonated body. Minimal aroma of dark fruit & malt. Medium bodied, smooth & sharp on the back. Dry. Dark bitter berries, sugar, cream, malt, dark spirits & a hoppy undercurrent.

Appearance- very dark brown, slight ruby tinge, a small beige head which fades quickly. Aroma- coffee, dark fruits, milk chocolate, toffee. Taste- chocolate, bitter coffee, dark fruit traces, caramel malt, chocolate fudge. Full and quite thick mouthfeel, chewy finish. Very good.

Classic American porter, bittersweet with a hefty chocolate core surrounded by mild cherry-raisin notes and a roasty, modest bitterness on the finish. Creamy texture and lovely mocha nose make it way too easy to kill the pint. Good beer.
