This robust award-winning porter uses roasted malts to deliver its characteristic smokiness. A touch of piloncillo, a cultivated and unrefined sugar used in Mexico for more than 500 years, rounds out this beer with a subtle yet pleasant hint of sweetness.

A rare beer, from a bottle. Friendly porter aroma. Yes, quite strong black beery impact. Almost an imperial stout but that smoked sensation is ever present. Fairly flat. Somewhat dull stout impressions. Tho this would not be considered tart beer, there is a linger side of wildness to it. In the big swigs I do detect some cutting carbonation in thar. Better than expected.

New Beer Distributors, NYC tap: Pours dark brown with a tan head. Aroma is very light amoke and a good bit of burnt sugar plus roast. Taste is not really sweet or bitter. Somewhere in between of each. Body is pleasant and very smooth. Tasty and a bit different.
