The 22 oz bottle I am tasting was delivered to me by my son who obtained a mix of stouts from Tavour. He has a bottle also and we are sharing a tasting by FaceTime. I will be pouring into my Buffalo Bayou snifter this evening. Caldera is a new brewer to us, certainly no distribution of this Oregon producer in west Texas. Porters tend to be bit light for me, I prefer the depth of an imperial porter, but I do like coconut considerably. And on with the show, I see a dark amber-brown entry with a consistent khaki head. The smell is appealing, chocolate and pecans. A drink gives the chocolate again, the barest touch of coconut and an usual sourish raspberry effect. Not bad exactly, I can drink sours, but different for a porter. I'll finish the bottle but not be looking for a next one.

Burk från SB. Disig orangegul vätska med massor av skum som gör den svår att hälla upp. Söt övermogen frukt, marmelad, muggig jäst och skarp resinbeska. Väldigt omotiverat att skeppa denna runt halva jordklotet. Inte bra
