Named after the highest point in the State of Utah at 13,528 feet, Kings Peak is located in the Uinta Mountains, a major east-west mountain range in northeastern Utah.

Kings Peak Porter lives up to its name by being big on flavor and complexity. It pours a rich, dark mahogany hue and is complimented by a creamy tan-colored head. Dark chocolate, toasted malt, and coffee may be detected in its nose.

Bottle. Pours dark brown with a small beige head. Smells of coffee and chocolate. Taste is a generic porter, coffee... bitter. Good, but unoriginal.

12 ounce bottle from Beer Run, 11/18/14. Pours a dark brown color with a medium sized foamy dark brown head. Good head retention. Aroma of dark roast, dark chocolate and a bit of brine. The taste is roasted malts, chocolate, mild citrus hops and faint hints of tea. A little thin.

Bottle shared by Jredmond. I need a label for this one. Please let me know if anyone has one. Pours dark brown with tan head. Nose and taste of light roast, cocoa and light coffee. Lighter medium body. Okay.

Black pour with tan head. Light aroma, roast malt and coffee. Flavour is light for a porter, roast, a little chocolate. Good but not great.

12oz bottle. Light for a Porter, amber-brown body. Thin oily head. Medium bodied, light Porter. Chocolate, amber malt, caramel. Quite mild, the ultimate US session Porter, or UK XXXtra strong Porter :). Like a a chocolate brown ale, or schwarz at times. Tastes nice.

12 ounce bottle. Barely translucent dark brown color. Small brief beige head with clinging lace. Subtle roasted malt aroma with hints of cocoa and brewed coffee. Upfront flavor is mild coffee with notes of charcoal and roasted malt. Finish is lightly hopped with a mild smokiness. Overall, an average American porter that is perfect for those looking to aquatint themselves with the style. For aficionados, somewhat lackluster.

Yet another beer picked up outside Bryce Canyon from Ruby’s Inn general store (at stupidly high prices). Poured into my plastic toothbrush tumbler after a days hiking in the canyon. Sadly I didn’t really enjoy this beer as much as some from Utah. The smell was a weak chocolate aroma, mixed with dirty washing water (yes, I’d cleaned the toothbrush tumbler, but thanks for thinking I hadn’t). The body was dark and the head tan coloured, low retension, no lacing. The taste and body were both thin and boring, I could find no hop content and found the beer poor in almost all aspects, sorry.
