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 from GBBF 08. Very dark brown, thin tan head. Roasted malt aroma, milky coffee and some milk choc. Very attractive mocha in mouth. It rather dies in the mouth. A touch ashy maybe. A bit cola-ish in the middle. Some choc on finihs. Some blackberry/plum fruit. bit disappointing.

On tap @ The Bayou. Pours deep darkness with lasting thin tan head. The aroma is full and roasty with some dark malts, chocolate and a rich nuttiness. Nice. The taste is much the same with a roastiness that moves toward chocolate and nutty goodness. It is creamy and smooth with mild burnt malts into the finish.

This beer came to me in my beer club. Sampled from a 12 oz brown bottle this beer poured a black color with a very large brown head. The aroma was roasty, bitter and had hints of coffee. The flavor was dry, roasty and bitter with notes of coffee and floral hops. The finish was long, bitter and roasty.

A watery porter with a dark red/brown body and a thin off-white head. Aroma was tame, and the flavor was by-the-numbers roasted and chocolate malts. Body was exceptionally thin.

Old score and notes. I judged this in the schwarzbier category at the GABF and I thought it was good enough for gold. I was outvoted, however, but yeah, it’s pretty tasty beer. I will update the notes and scores at such time as I can procure a bottle or pint for rating.
