Reviewed from notes.
Can to snifter.
Appearance: dark brown close to black in color with a thin off white foamy head head which died off nicely to leave some light lace.
Aroma: roasted malts, milk chocolate, coffee, toasted nuts and some vanilla bean smooth sweetness
Flavor: blends all the prior noted aromas nicely to a smooth toasty and sweet balance; mild aftertaste of chocolate, vanilla and some dark chocolate
Texture: medium bodied, some sessionability; good balance between the roast and smooth aspects running along my tongue; finishes semi-roasty and a touch of the vanilla to mellow that out
Overall: an extremely well balanced porter - so much that I'm not exactly sold on why this is considered a pastry porter on Brewver but I'll just let the rest of that go and move on.

Draught @ Stag's Head, Manhattan (June 2023). Clear dark brown with red highlights, small foamy beige head, faint roasted malt aroma, medium carbonation, mildly sweet caramel-coffee taste, thin body, long sweetish mocha finish. A bit on the sweet side.
