Black pour, medium beige head. Aroma is very hop forward, lots of pine resins and slightly burnt malts with hints of soy and coffee. Body and mouth feel are quite nice. Finish is hoppy and roasty. The American Porter definition is spot on. A nice roasty, hoppy Porter.

On tap at Walker St, pours a red-tinged dark brown with a medium tan head. Nose is quite woody, with medium roasted malt, and a robust dry hopping to balance. Flavour is certainly robust, with lots of dry hopping, some wood, and robust roasted malt. There's also a bit of fusel alcohols / glue in there that could be ironed out. Other than that relatively minor imperfection, this is pleasant enough.

Merci à Denis pour les bouteilles. Au nez on a du chocolat au lait et des noisettes. Noire et opaque avec une mousse moka qui traine moyennement En bouche, chocolat noir et noisettes nous introduisent une torréfaction intense qui se combine en finale à une résine de conifère qui traine longtemps en fond de bouche. Finale assez sèche sur un corps moyennement léger qui en fait une bière bien équilibrée. Les noisettes amènent un élément d’originalité intéressant. Beau produit.

Keg at Waller St. Brewing, Ottawa. Black, rich creamy head. Gun powder, licorice and coffee up front. Dry with well sized body and dense, firm mouthfeel. Earthy licorice, coffee. Really bitter finish. Packed, yet dry, edgeless and nicely drinkable. World class.

Pours a very dark brown colour with a beautiful creamy-foamy head, great retention and lacing. Nice soft roasted malts and hints of apples after breathing a while. The taste is porter-like with some good dark fruits over the roasted malts with some light grass in the finish. A little oily in the mouthfeel with a small dry finish. A nice, not too thick porter that goes down beautifully with decent hops and fruits.
