Pours very dark brown and smells of chocolate, coffee, and roast malt. It has a well balanced flavor with chocolate accented dark roast malt lingering in the finish. Nice porter.

From Beer Drop, no dating on the can.
It pours black with a massive head of tan foam, good lacing and retention.
The smell is roasted malt, chocolate, hints of coffee and smoke?
The taste is roasted malt, dark chocolate, caramel malt, coffee, maybe some smoke notes. Very flavourful.
Good mouthfeel, really good Porter.
