And so it goes. Through the blinding contortions of reality we stray. Lost in the pretense of we thought was true. And now we wait, for no one knows what will return from that void. A complex assortment of European toasted, caramelized, and roasted barley is paired with rolled oats for this deeply black porter to create a rich and developing base for a firm usage of citrusy and herbal American hops late in the boil which create a mildly bitter and always inviting glass of deep roast coffee, dark chocolate coated orange zest, and gooey caramel clusters.

Black in color with a small tan head. Aroma is a little on the hoppy side for a porter. Taste is also a little on the hoppy but it still tasted great.

Tasty American porter, a nice mix of cocoa and caramel underlined by a brisk mocha bitterness and hints of berry. Finishes dry, with alternating notes of lingering pine and roast. Very good beer.

12oz bottle from GBX. Pint glass @home. Very dark brown, frothy pour. Mild, herbal bitterness over a toasty flour, dry malt nose. A little cold or just lacking. Taste is herbal twang, borderline dank, soft char, flour, dry & deep malt finish. Lingering char & some sharpness. Thin, irritating carb that started falling really fast, drying. Not sure about this one.

Keg at the brewery, 4/25/23. Near black, large brown head, good retention. Aroma of roast, chocolate, mild green hops. Taste is roast, chocolate, cherry. Solid, but a bit too sweet.
