Bottle. The hoppiest porter I’ve ever had. The chocolate malt taste is overpowered by the citrus hop. Nice brown color with a nice head. Aroma is also hoppy. Not bad but not what I expected.

Poured into a nonic pint glass, the appearance was a dark brown close to black color with a fizzy to bubbly little white head that dissipated immediately. No lacing.
The aroma had sour green apple and excessive acidity, burnt toast, and a rugged roastiness.
The flavor takes a drastic sharp turn for the worse as it seems hell bent on the sour acidity clenching the roasty portion and trying it’s hardest to kick it out. Dull burnt toasty aftertaste an acidic finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light on the body with a sharp acidic sour bite gripping my tongue. Mild carbonation. But the acidity is so sharp that it’s quite hard to take down.
Overall, really hoping McNeil’s gives it up. Their beers just seem to get worse the more I try them.

Light brown. A little chocolate nose. Mild and weak taste, oily sweet birch wood and a touch of Fuji apple

Bomber from Whole Foods Market Paramus. Pours a clear very dark brown color with a large frothy brown head. Good head retention. Aroma of chocolate, roasted malts, leafy hops and a faint tartness. The taste is very dry roasted malts, chocolate, bitter hops, green almost olive notes. Medium bodied. Interesting,

Location: 22 oz bottle from Buy Rite, 9/21/12
Aroma: The aroma has bittersweet chocolate, roasted barley, some coffee, and hoppy notes
Appearance: It pours a dark brown color with a thick, pillowy, light brown head and heavy lacing
Flavor: The taste is bittersweet chocolate and coffee, with a fairly heavy hop presence for this style
Palate: The body is medium-full, though it feels slightly watery, and it end with a dry finish
Overall Impression: I thought this was a pretty solid, leaning hoppy, Porter. It may not have been exactly on style, but this was a nice beer that I enjoyed drinking.

Pours a dark brown with a bubbly tan head that dissipates quickly. Smells of chocolate, brown sugar, floral hops, and a bit of spicy yeast. Taste is roasty chocolaty molasses with a hop bite that is followed by an acridic bitter finish that makes this one unpleasant. Carbonation is a touch on the high side, mouthfeel is bubbly, body is medium. Its good until the finish then it just kinda gets ugly. I couldn’t finish this one.

Bottle at ChrisOs ’Blue Ridge Mountains Of Virginia’ tasting. Very very dark brown, lasting beige head. Quite hoppy for a porter. OK, fairly hoppy, some decent malts, some hops. It’s a black IPA. Decent, in fact more than decent.

22nd May 2010. ChrisOs ’Blue Ridge Mountains Of Virginia’ tasting! Clear red brown beer. A little off white head. Soft dry palate. Dark toffee. Unsweet. Well blended with good hops - grapefruit and orange marmalade. Finishes soft.
