On tap at the Maple Shade brewpub. A brown, almost clear beer topped by a light beige head. The aroma has coffee, chocolate and roasted malts, quite balanced. There’s some bitterness and sweetness in the flavor, but it’s mostly roasted malts giving you chocolate and coffee. Smooth, dry and full to medium bodied and with a lasting finish. A nice beer, but more a brown ale than a porter I think. 150623

On tap at the brewpub. An amber colored beer, clear, and with a dense, white head. Caramel, some grass and a faint roasted note in the aroma. It’s soft, thin-bodied and with a decent bitterness, although rather low. Suits the beer though. There’s not too much flavor either. Some caramel maltyness and a light grassy, fruity hop flavor. Easy drinkable, but not ringing any of my bells. 150623

On tap at the brewpub. It’s a clear, pale golden beer topped by a small, dense, white head. Some lacing. Rather weak aroma, fruity, and with some maltyness and grass. It’s thin and soft on the palate, quite dry, with a decent bitterness. Generic fruityness and grass on a malty backdrop, all weak, just as in the flavor. A boring beer, but sort of quenching and refreshing. 150623
