Canned 1/11/23, drunk 5/21/23. Dark mahogany, clear. Large tan head, moderate retention. Nose smells nutty, roasty, chocolatey. Classic, American porter, low hops, no apparency. Clean. Soft, malty, rich roast, hazelnuts, vanilla, chocolate and coffee beans. Sweet, but drying on the finish. Lingering bread and acidity with strong roast throughout but a very solid base malt depth and good attenuation. Robust, intense, flavorful, malty. Roasty.

Can (3/21/21) pour. It's an opaque black with no sparkle, finger-width creamy light brown head with fair retention and nice soapy lacing. Aroma is strong roasted earthy malt (toward the burnt side). Taste is rich mix of sweet and bitter roasted malt (not as burnt as aroma). Mouthfeel is medium bodied with thick texture, soft carbonation and finish as taste. Overall, straightforward porter but with excellent strength. Avoids being too burnt/bitter in the flavor.
