12 oz. can purchased in Austin, TX. Pours an opaque dark brown color with a gigantic tan head and excellent retention. Good lacing. Light roasted aroma. Roasted malt and dry dark chocolate flavor. Thick enough body. Semi-creamy mouthfeel. The 6.0% ABV and 43 IBUs are well hidden. Very good, not great.

Got in a trade with The-Adjunct-Hippie. 12 ounce can into pint glass, canned on 11/22/2017. Pours crystal clear very dark brown color with a 1 finger fairly dense and rocky khaki head with fantastic retention, that reduces to a nice cap that lasts. Nice spotty soapy lacing clings on the glass, with a fair amount of streaming carbonation. Fantastic appearance. Aromas of milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, toffee, nuttiness, and toasted dark/brown bread; with light notes of smoke, char, dark fruit, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness. Nice and pleasant aromas with good balance and complexity of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop notes; with solid strength. Taste of big milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, toffee, nuttiness, and toasted dark/brown bread; with light notes of smoke, char, dark fruit, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness. Light-moderate roast/char and herbal/grassy/spicy hop bitterness on the finish. Lingering notes of milk/dark chocolate, cocoa, coffee, caramel, toffee, nuttiness, toasted dark/brown bread, light smoke/char, herbal, grass, pepper, and roast/toasted earthiness on the finish for a while. Awesome complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; with a great hop/roast bitter/sweet balance; and zero cloying/acrid/astringent flavors after the finish. Lightly increasing dryness from lingering hop/roast bitterness. Medium carbonation and body; with a very smooth, creamy/silky/bready, and lightly sticky/chalky mouthfeel that is great. Zero warming alcohol for 6%. Overall this is an excellent American porter. All around great complexity, robustness, and balance of dark/roast/bready malt and light-moderate earthy hop flavors; very smooth and easy to drink with the mellowly bitter/drying finish. Very rich for the ABV, great well rounded porter malt complexity, and solid earthy hop balance that isn't overdone. A very enjoyable offering, and spot on style example.

Can. A- Chocolate syrup, roasty. A- Black color, black liquid, brown head. T- Chocolate milk, roasty, cream, malty, subtle bitter coffee. P- Full body, thin creamy texture, medium carbonation, watery finish. O- This was good and bad. Unlike most porters I’ve had and a ton like many sweet stouts I’ve had. This was as close to drinking chocolate milk as I’ve ever had in a beer.

Draft -Dark roast and dark chocolate. Jet black with a rich light brown head. Roast malts, bittersweet chocolate and a long sweet finish. Well balanced and just well done.
