Pours big and black with a nose of friendly smoldering campfire, all laced with a mild olfactory of gravel, like slag or gramma's hair permanent treatment, slaggy roasty and such. First uptake is a little boozy and bitter dark choco candy burnt. It looks great in the glass, almost black with a keen simple near choco moose head. 'Robust' is certainly a prime descriptor of this brew. Descent cutting hidden fine co2 constantly in the palate. Whew, middle is big wet damp old charred and almost burnt campfire wood. You think on the finish, the dark bitter burnt aspect really comes forward? Hehehhehh.

Roast and some caramel. Pours black with decent head. Dry bitter finish. A note of coffee, bitter nut. Tap at Churchkey.

On tap at BG. Pours a very dark brown color with a medium tan head. A big roast and chocolate nose. Sweet, vanilla, toasted malts, toffee, light dark chocolate, very big flavors. Solid porter.

Sampled on draft at Independent Brewing this beer poured a black color with a large foamy very dark brown head that faded quickly and left minimal lacing. The aroma was chocolate, roasty malts, wood and coffee. The flavor was moderately butter with notes of vodka, red wine, chocolate, coffee, wood, roasty malts and biscuit. Long finish. Moderately full bodied. Solid.
