Appearing almost black at first glance, Wild Goose Porter is actually a deep ruby-red ale. Roasted malt flavors accent its velvety finish.

From old tasting notes. Deep mahogany brown color. Thick creamy tan head. Spicy roasted malt nose hints at chocolate and toffee. Rich roasted malt flavor with a buttery mouthfeel. Pleasant malty finish. A delicious Porter.

12 oz brown bottle. Pour is really dark almost opaque with lots of foam action within – pretty! The aroma is debonair, with hints of chocolate flavored nestle quick mix. Very nice darker tan head, may even be approaching the color of chocolate mouse. Impressive hardy first taste that fades to something a little more inquisitive. Its interesting roasty malt bite fades to a genial flavor of beer. A short mild bitterness accompanies the finish. Almost as good as Yuengling black & tan.

A red-brown beer with an OK brown head. The aroma is quite light, what is there is sweet with notes of chocolate. The flavor is sweet with light notes of chocolate, and with a good hop bitterness to balance the sweetness. The body is quite light, so it reminds me mostly of an English style Porter.

Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a black color with a medium sized dark tan head. The aroma is moderately strong with roasty malts and bitter floral hops. The flavor is bitter, roasty and has a moderately strong floral hops. The finish is bitter and roasty. Decent.

Pours a beautiful, deep garnet brown with an average sized tan head that falls quickly. Weak aroma, a bit of chocolate and some roast, but nothing prominent. The flavor is lightly sweet, but nothing that shouts Porter here. A bit thin.

$1.49 for a 12-oz single. Brown in color (not almost black as the description says), no head. Malty aroma and smooth malty taste. Nothing special, but decent.

Deep clear red-brown body, medium creamy tan head. Baker’s chocolate and toast aroma. Flavor is rich, layered chocolate with toasty notes and bitter coffee beans in the finish. Has an interesting vanilla-like aspect. Medium-bodied and nicely creamy. Borders on the English porter style. Quite good.

Dark, dark brown in colour with a nice dense tan head. The beer isn't completely opaque, as some red highlights show near the bottom of the glass. Very subtle aroma consisting of raisins, coffee and malt. Definate malty flavour and a very clean flavourless aftertaste. Somewhat malty throughout, but not with the best of them. A pretty thin-bodided beer for the style, but not the worst i've had by far. Not a great beer, not a bad beer...its a typical one for the style and its from Maryland!
