Damn fine American porter, perhaps the best in South Carolina now that God only knows when we’ll see Founders again. Deliciously smooth and dry, with a near-perfect swipe of bitter chocolate and roasted malt, yet with a mild, slick texture, making the pint wickedly easy to sip. Couple all this dark beer goodness with a sane ABV, and you’ve got yourself one hell of a pint.

Brewgrass 2009 Dark brown small tan head. Rich aroma with lots of chocolate, some coffee and roast malts. Slightly bitter from the roast malts, but a lot of flavor here that follows the aroma under the roast malt bitterness.

Served on draft at the brewery. Pours a dark reddish brown color with a large head. Good head retention and lacing. Aroma of sweet roasted malts with lactic and coffee notes. Taste is fruity in the beginning with notes of green apple and pear. Finish is roasted malts and chocolate. Full bodied.
