Bottle from 2014 thanks to Willrunforbeer! Pretty damn carbonated; extremely slow motion gusher on opening. Aroma is dusty, dry, roasty, cocoa, lemon zest. Flavor is dry as well, medium bitter, roasty, very dusty, acidic, lemon. Medium body, extremely high carbonation makes life difficult without some patience. I imagine time in the old rot box did not do this one any good, unfortunately.

750 ml bottle thanks going to Willrunforbeer. Bottled 9/19/2014. Dark brown color, still thin lasting head. Aroma shows honey, slightly sour grain, mild roast. Mostly honey.
Flavor shows me honey right upfront with a light caramel candy in the center. The finish has a light bitterness that comes out to help balance the sweet honey of the Porter. Body is medium and carbonation is low. Texture is on the slick side with a mild grain aftertaste. Decent even after this amount of time sitting.

Poured from bottle thanks Willrunforbeer. Chocolate brown color with lingering head. Aromas of caramel and earth chocolate and pine. Taste follows aroma with honey tones. Roasty finish with slight bitterness.
