Bottle at Craig’s. Pours dark brown with a tan head. Sweetness on the aroma must be maple, but hard to pinpoint. Vanilla. Not very porter-y. Taste has very light roast character, more sweet sugar than anything. Not great.

Pours deep mahogany into a Sam glass. Huge tan micro head with excellent retention conglomerates and recedes leaving no lacing. Chocolate and maple aromas. Sharp with sweet maple and mild smoke upfront turning to bitter chocolate in the lasting finish.
