Reviewed from notes.
The appearance was a dark brown color with a slight tan foamy head that didn’t leave much lace.
The aroma had some smoke/ash with a heavy dose of dark chocolate and ended with a little bit of maple. Light toast.
The flavor had some of the same as the aroma with some caramel malts making a decent play here. Light ashy/char aftertaste with a dry sort of finish.
The feel was about medium bodied, perhaps just a touch under with a fair sessionability about it. Good carbonation. ABV felt appropriate.
Overall, pretty good porter worthy of coming back to.

2003 draught. Dark black pour with a small beige head, quite fleeting. Aroma of licorice, black malt and dark roast. Quite bitter and dark, with a good roasty, almost salty flavor. Flavor was great, but the body was only medium with a bit too much carbonation. I like chewier porters. Not dominated by hops, so that was nice.
