From Nov 2007

Another brew I got in a trade with autumnaldave. Thanks Dave!

It pours from 341ml bottle a very dark brown with just the slightest reddish hue and a near 2 finger head of tannish foam. It recedes to a fine layer over time and it has some good lacing.

The smell is nice..I get coffee , roasted malt, and a touch of chocolate.

The taste kind of fooled me; The first thing I noticed on my palate was a dark chocolate flavour followed by coffee(yeah, it starts to take over after the first sip) and roasted malt and there's some sweet malt kicking it up in the backgound. There's a bitterness there that I figure comes from both the coffee and the dark chocolate and it's absolutely delicious. The mouthfeel is medium bordering on heavy and the carbonation is light. Very easy drinking, this son of a gun, and so smooth on the tongue. Man, I could kick back a few of these. To tell you the truth, I'm not a huge fan of coffee)I prefer tea) but the few "Coffee" brews I've had have realy impressed me....

Bottom line: Another very nice Porter that I can only recommend. Thanks again, Dave. It was another excellent sample to throw in as an extra!!

Sampled from a 12oz brown bottle this beer poured a black color with a huge foamy dark brown head that lingered and left good lacing. The aroma was vanilla, brewed coffee, toasty malts and moderate bitterness. The flavor was rather bitter with sourish brewed coffee, roasty malts and floral hops. Long finish. Medium body. Ok.

Bottle from the brewpub in Ottawa. Pours hazy very dark brown with creamy, stable light tan head. Clear aroma of roast and malt, with estery notes and touches of coffee. Roasty flavour with notes of coffee and malt and touches of oats and hops. Subtle hints of metal. Estery and slightly coffelike and lactic aftertaste. Decent.

On tap at Smith. Pours near black with a grayish brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has a combination of sweet dark grains and coffee with a hint of roasted malts. Flavor starts with coffee and roasted malts but finish is mainly sweet dark grains.

Bottle from the Beer Store. Pours black with a small dark tan head. Nose is coffee and chocolate and plums. Moderately sweet to start but coffee and chocolate bitterness create a nice dry finish. Medium creamy body and slightly soft carbonation; seems too light for a porter, but very tasty.

Bottle sample at a tasting at the Beer & Beyond shop. Thanks kerenmk. Dark brown to black with a tan head. Aroma of coffee, some roastiness and light chocolate notes. Mildly roasty flavor with coffee beans, a bit "green" and a bit of nutty hints. Medium-bodied.

Bouteille 341ml. De couleur noire et opaque. Nez de café, de malt rôti, moyen de chocolat noir avec des notes de noix brûlées. Moyenne-mince en bouche avec un pétillement moyen et une texture moyennement crémeuse et aux notes aqueuses. Très léger goût de chocolat au lait (faibles notes lactiques) lors de l’entrée en bouche suivi rapidement d’un goût de malt assez rôti avec de faibles notes brûlées ainsi qu’un léger-moyen goût de chocolat noir puis progressivement, un goût de café espresso s’installe jusqu’en finale avec de faibles notes de houblon herbeux. Post-goût long et légèrement sec, légèrement amer de café noir, léger de rôti avec des notes de chocolat noir et de faibles notes de houblon herbeux.
