Bottle shared by Greg, thanks! Pours a near clear deep brown with a light brown head that dissipates to the edges. Aroma has light roast and dark grains with a touch of dark chocolate underlying. Flavor has a nice dark grain and bitter roast chocolate with a nice roast backbone.

On tap at Apex, pours black with a small beige head. Aroma brings out moderate roast upfront, with light dry cocoa and earthy coffee. Flavour is rich, with lots of roasted malt, subtle earthy coffee, and bitter cocoa. Loads of depth and balanced very well. Lovely.

5 oz. pour at Backcountry Pizza. Pours black, with a medium, frothy, tan head. The aroma is mellow coffee, light smoke, butter toffee, and cherries. Sweet and syrupy, with a mild bitterness. Medium body, with a smooth and silky palate. This is a balanced, aromatic, and delicious porter. Nice.
