Can from the lcbo. Dark brown pour, with a medium beige head. Aroma is light roast, hints of coffee and the slightest thin cherry. Mouth feel is nice, carb is good. Finish is thin, watery, light roast, light random fruit, low bitterness, soft cereals. Meh.

This porter poured a deep black colour with a tan coloured, creamy head. Minimal lacing. Scents include cherries, a little smoke and molasses. First swig was flavourful. Tastes of lightly burnt malts, light black cherries and a little smoke. Finish is lightly sweet with smokey cherry flavours lingering.

Can that pours a clean copper colour with a light-beige head, frothy, good stay and creamy lacing streaks. Apples and nutty malts are most of the aromas. Hints of chocolate and mild cherries. These fruits show a little more in the taste with some hops that balances the finish. Nothing too extreme. For those who are not as big of a fan of fruity beers. Well-hidden cherry notes, and an easy porter.

Can from the LCBO. Clear dark reddish brown with a one finger tan head that fades to a sheet. Nose is roast, coffee and a hint of cherry. Light molasses sweetness under a medium- dark chocolate and coffee bitterness and a light cherry tartness through the finish. Mouth is medium- with average carbonation. 7/3+/7-/3/13
